SELECTMULTI specifies how cataloged multivolume data sets are to be selected during conversion to or from SMS management. The volume list is the list of volumes supplied by the DDNAME or DYNAM keyword.

ALL: Specifies that DFSMSdss not process a multivolume data set unless all of the volumes that contain a part of the non-VSAM data set or VSAM base cluster are in the volume list specified by DDNAME or DYNAM. ALL is the default for non-SMS processing.
ANY: Specifies that DFSMSdss process a multivolume data set when any part of the non-VSAM data set or VSAM base cluster is on a volume in the volume list specified by DDNAME or DYNAM.
FIRST: Specifies that DFSMSdss process a multivolume data set only when the DDNAME or DYNAM volume list includes the volume that contains the first part of the non-VSAM data set or the primary data component of the base cluster for a VSAM sphere. FIRST is the default for SMS processing.
