BYPASSACS specifies that Automatic Class Selection (ACS) routines are not to be invoked to determine the target data set’s storage class or management class names. To specify BYPASSACS, RACF® authorization might be required.

dsn: Specifies a fully or partially qualified data set name.

If a data set is being renamed, the old name must be specified.

Note: If BYPASSACS(dsn) is specified, all data sets that pass the BYPASSACS selection criteria are guaranteed the specified storage class. The combination of NULLSTORCLAS and BYPASSACS(dsn) forces the selected data sets to be non-SMS managed.

For more information about RACF authorization, see Protecting DFSMSdss functions. For more information about data set names, see Filtering by data set names.
