Changing DFSMShsm backup and migration generated dataset names to reduce contention for similar names and eliminating a possible performance degradation z/OS DFSMShsm Implementation and Customization Guide SC23-6869-01 |
|
In environments where many small similarly named datasets are backed
up or migrated across multiple tasks and multiple instances of DFSMShsm,
a possible contention for the target dataset name may occur. This
contention could cause a performance degradation. DFSMShsm normally
creates unique dataset names for its backup and migrate datasets using
the form:
where prefix is
the backup or migration defined prefix, function is
either BACK or HMIG, Tssmmhh is a timestamp, user1 and user2 are
the first two high-level qualifiers of the source dataset name, and
Xyddd is a date.After enablement of the feature, generated names will have Tssmmhh replaced with Tcccchh, where cccc is the time in hundredths of seconds from the beginning of the hour, converted to four alphabetic characters and hh is the hour. See z/OS DFSMShsm Storage Administration. for more details and conversion information. To activate the feature, issue the following:
