 Posted: Thu Feb 02, 2012 8:12 am Post subject: Problem with RMM and VRS definitions with GDG data sets |
 |
|
We have transferred from CA1 to RMM. After we are using RMM we have found that cataloged datasets on tape volumes are being scratched even
though the datasets are still cataloged and valid. We had a default
expiration of 7 days, when a data set is older than the 7 days it will
be scratched even though it should not be because it is still cataloged and a GDG. We also have some VRS definitions. The question is, what definitions are necessary to make sure that cataloged datasets, in particular GDG datasets, will not be scratched as long as they are cataloged? Any ideas would be appreciated.
One of our VRS definitions that should apply to the following two cases:
| Code: |
//*---------------------------------------------------------------------
//* VRS FOR GENERATION DATA GROUPS
//*---------------------------------------------------------------------
RMM ADDVRS DSNAME('**.G%%%%V00') GDG CYCLES COUNT(99999) -
DELDATE(1999/365) LOCATION(HOME) PRIORITY(0) OWNER(LIBRARY) -
WHILECATALOG

Here is a GDG that looks OK: | Code: |
Data set name . . : 'PDBP1D.DBINS.DSNLOBTS.ICP.G0251V00'
Volume serial . . : B45094 Physical file sequence number . . : 1

And here is a GDG that we can not explain at all:
| Code: |
