DAYS: Specifying migration eligibility of data sets

Explanation: DAYS(days) is an optional parameter specifying how many consecutive days that data sets on migration level 1 volumes are to remain inactive before they are eligible for migration. For days, substitute a decimal number from 0 to 999.

Defaults: If you do not specify DAYS(days), DFSMShsm migrates the data sets from the volume based on the current DFSMShsm value for the MIGRATIONLEVEL1DAYS parameter of the SETSYS command.

Note: The DAYS(days) parameter can be used for non-SMS level 0 volumes and has the same meaning as if it was specified using the VOLUME(volser MIGRATE(days)) method. See the VOLUME parameter for a description of the parameter. If both DAYS(days) and VOLUME(volser MIGRATE(days)) are specified, the VOLUME(volser MIGRATE(days)) value is used.
