Optimizing cartridge loaders by restricting output to devices with cartridge loaders z/OS DFSMShsm Implementation and Customization Guide SC23-6869-01 |
|||||
DFSMShsm always requests a mount for a specific tape for input processing, so cartridge loaders are of little value for input. For mounting a single tape on a 3480 device type from which to recall or recover a data set, it may be more economical to allocate a device that does not have a cartridge loader. To ensure that non-cartridge-loader devices are used for input,
you can direct DFSMShsm to use esoteric unit names in a special way that
directs a cartridge to be allocated on a different set of devices
for input than was used for output. This activity is called esoteric translation and it occurs if:
Only if the preceding conditions have been met can esoteric translation
occur. Esoteric translation occurs in either of two ways:
