Designating FlashCopy usage z/OS DFSMSdss Storage Administration SC23-6868-01 |
|
The FASTREPLICATION(REQUIRED | PREFERRED | NONE) keyword tells DFSMSdss how you want to use fast replication methods such as FlashCopy®. The default is FASTREPLICATION(PREFERRED). FASTREPLICATION(REQUIRED) specifies
that DFSMSdss must
use data set FlashCopy for
the DEFRAG operation.
If FlashCopy cannot be
used for one of the following normal reasons, DFSMSdss issues
informational message ADR946I and error message ADR938E, which indicates
that the processing of the current extent failed. DEFRAG processing
attempts to use FlashCopy to
move the subsequent extents.
FASTREPLICATION(PREFERRED) specifies that DFSMSdss attempt to use data set FlashCopy before any other I/O method. If data set FlashCopy cannot be used for one of the normal reasons listed earlier, DFSMSdss issues message ADR946I and uses traditional I/O methods to move the current extent. DEFRAG processing attempts to use FlashCopy to move the subsequent extents. If FlashCopy cannot be used for reasons other than the normal reasons, DFSMSdss issues message ADR945W and uses traditional I/O methods to move the current extent and all the subsequent extents on the volume. NOTE: The unexpected FlashCopy failures are logged in the LOGREC by services that DFSMSdss initiates to perform a FlashCopy operation. The normal FlashCopy reasons are not logged in the LOGREC. FASTREPLICATION(NONE) specifies that DFSMSdss not attempt to use data set FlashCopy during the DEFRAG operation. For more information about the FASTREPLICATION(REQUIRED | PREFERRED | NONE) keyword, refer to z/OS DFSMSdfp Storage Administration. |
