  ****************************************************************
   z/OS DFSMSdss Storage Administration  (SC35-0423-xx)
   will need to be updated as follows:
  
   In 'Chapter 2. Requirements for running DFSMSdss', update
   section :'Temporary data set names'.
  
   Temporary copied data sets
    Allocated by DFSMSdss when a copy is performed and deleted
    when the copy is completed.
    The format of the temporary name depends on the number of
    qualifiers of the data set being copied:
  
    Number of qualifiers (n) Temporary name
           1                 dsnhlq.Thhmmsst.chmiju00
           2                 First 2 qualifiers.Thhmmsst.chmiju00
           >2                First 3 qualifiers.Thhmmsst.chmiju00
  
   The next to last qualifier, Thhmmsst, is a combination of a fix
   "T" character followed hhmmsst, which is the first part of the
   time stamp information, hours digits (hh),
   minutes (mm), seconds (ss), and tenths of a second (t).
  
   The last qualifier is chmiju00 where c is:
   T Target cluster name
   D Target data component name
   I Target index component name
   U Source cluster name
   E Source data component name
   J Source index component name
   P Source path name
   Q Target path name
   and hmiju is the rest of the time stamp information, hundredths
   of a second (h), milliseconds (m), ten-thousandths of seconds
   (i), hundred-thousandths of seconds (j), and microseconds (u).
  
   Note: In the course of copying data sets, DFSMSdss renames the
   source data set using the above conventions. Whenever DFSMSdss
   renames a data set that is protected by RACF, a component of
   the Security Server for z/OS, to a temporary name a RACF
   profile must exist for the temporary data set name.
