Is it possible to assgin a scratch pool by Program Name? All tapes created by DSNUTILB should be assigned a specific scratch pool.
Environment
Release : 14.0
Component : CA 1 Tape Management
Resolution
As the PGM can't be used in the TMONSMnn member to assgin a scratch subpool, assign a MGMTLCAS in the ACS routines for PGM DSNUTILB. This MGMTLCAS can then be used in TMONSMnn as criteria.
NOTE: be sure SMS optiion in TMOOPTnn member is set to EXT, so that the MGMTLCAS will be used during Mount Message processing to assign the scratch subpool.
Additional Information
Valid parameters for TMONSMnn are
