MIGRATION: Releasing space management

Explanation

MIGRATION is an optional parameter specifying whether DFSMShsm should release automatic volume and automatic secondary space management plus command space management or only automatic volume and automatic secondary space management.

The MIGRATION parameter, without any subparameters, specifies that DFSMShsm release command space management plus automatic volume and automatic secondary space management.

MIGRATION(AUTO) is a subparameter specifying that DFSMShsm release only automatic volume and automatic secondary space management.

If tape migration has ended while DASD migration continues or if DASD migration has ended while tape migration continues, this parameter allows both DASD and tape to resume their acceptability as migration targets (for both MIGRATION alone and with AUTO).

Defaults

None.

Usage notes:

You cannot release the subfunction MIGRATION(AUTO) if the main function MIGRATION is held.
If the time is still within the automatic primary space management or automatic secondary space management processing window, any automatic primary space management or automatic secondary space management functions that were not completed when migration was held begin processing.
