Environment

Release: ESBALQ99000-12.5-CA-Allocate-DASD Space and Placement-with Quota Manager-Extende

Resolution

There is an action item for CA Disk r12.5 PTF RO69420 related to the Allocation Selection Routine (ASR) of our product CA Allocate.

If you not have CA Allocate installed, you can ignore this action item. 

If you have CA Allocate and use NOT CATLGD 2 processing, then then you need to review and change the CA Allocate ASR SNC2 routine accordingly.

If you have further questions, please contact support and provide the CA Allocate Task log with the ASR for reviewing.

 Allocation products may see errors if their routines aren't checking      

 for pseudo volumes (like ARCIVE and MIGRAT) before using Not CATLGD 2     

 processing.  For CA Allocate, we suggest adding this to your ASR for      

 the SNC2 routine:                                                         

 IF &IFCATV EQ 'ARCIVE' or &IFCATV EQ 'MIGRAT' THEN                        

 EXIT                                                                      

 Where ARCIVE is the value specified for PLSARCVL and MIGRAT is the        

 value specified for PLSMIGL.
