First Modifier of Receive Work Files (RPREFIX)

When you create work files for the Multiple Receive on an SMS-managed volume, carry out the following:

• Specification of a modifier for the First Modifier of Receive Work Files (RPREFIX) in the System Environment Settings

• Definition of ACS routines in order for data sets whose names start with the first modifier that is specified above to be created on an SMS-managed volume

UNIT Name of Send Files and Receive Files (INIT-UNIT)

When you receive data in an SMS-managed file, the unit information that is registered in the storage group overrides the value that is specified for the UNIT Name of Send Files and Receive Files (INIT-UNIT).

Volume Serial (VOL)

When you receive data in an existing SMS-managed file, the value that is specified for the Volume Serial is not used. Receive files are created on the volumes defined in the storage group that is defined on the operating system.

Volumes defined in the storage group must belong to the unit group that is specified as the default for the system.

Work Volume Serial (WORK-VOL)

When you create work files for the Multiple Receive on an SMS-managed volume, do not specify the Work Volume Serial (WORK-VOL).

When you create work files for the Multiple Receive on an SMS-managed volume, refer to the note in this section on the First Modifier of Receive Work Files (RPREFIX) in the System Environment Settings.

Multivolume (VOL-TYPE)

It is possible to create a new multi-volume file and receive data in it when all of the following conditions are met:

• The Receive file is an SMS-managed file

• The value of the volume count in the defined data class for the Receive file is 2 or higher

When all of the following conditions are met, specify 'A' (Automatic) for the Multivolume (VOL-TYPE) in the Receive Management Information, because the Receive file may be changed to a multi-volume file.

• Data is received in existing SMS-managed files

• The value of the Dynamic Volume Count in the defined data class is 2 or higher.

When you receive data in an existing SMS-managed Receive file, it is recommended that you specify 'A' (Automatic) for the Multivolume (VOL-TYPE) in the Receive Management Information. By doing so, you can receive data regardless of whether the Receive file is a single-volume file or a multi-volume file.

UNIT (UNIT)

When you receive data in an SMS-managed file, the value that is specified for the UNIT (UNIT) is not used, because the Receive file is created on a volume that is set for the storage group.

Error Handling (ABNORMAL)

When you specify 'R' (Restore) for the Error Handling (ABNORMAL), specify classes with the same attributes as the Receive file for the following fields in the Receive Management Information:

• Storage Class (STORCLAS)

• Management Class (MGMTCLAS)

• Data Class (DATACLAS)

Catalog Operation (CATALOG)

When you create a new Receive file on an SMS-managed volume, the file is cataloged regardless of the specification of the Catalog Operation (CATALOG).

Handling of Inter-Mainframe Receiving (MFRCVORG)

When the Send file is an SMS-managed file, the class attributes of the Send file are not used for the Receive file.

Data Class (DATACLAS)

When you create a new Receive file on an SMS-managed volume, specify the Data Class (DATACLAS) to suit your environment.

When you specify the Data Class (DATACLAS) in the Receive Management Information and create a new Receive file to receive data, if you omit the following fields or specify 'No' for the fields, the values in the data class that is specified for the Data Class (DATACLAS) are applied for the Receive file.

• Record Format (RECFM)

• Record Length (LRECL)

• Block Size (BLOCKLEN)

• Print Character (PRINT-CNTL)

• Capacity (CYL|TRK)

• 1ST Extent (CYL|TRK)

• Secondary (CYL|TRK)

Storage Class (STORCLAS)

When you create a new Receive file on an SMS-managed volume, specify the Storage Class (STORCLAS) to suit your environment.

Management Class (MGMTCLAS)

When you create a new Receive file on an SMS-managed volume, specify the Management Class (MGMTCLAS) to suit your environment.

Command Execution Log Backup Output Volume Name (OPLCMDBKVOL)

When you specify the Command Execution Log Backup Output Data Set Name (OPLCMDBK) and the generation files are to be created on an SMS-managed volume, the files will be created on a volume that belongs to the target storage group instead of the volume that you specified for the Command Execution Log Backup Output Volume Name (OPLCMDBKVOL).

File Access Log Backup Output Volume Name (OPLFILEBKVOL)

When you specify the File Access Log Backup Output Data Set Name (OPLFILEBK) and the generation files are to be created on an SMS-managed volume, the files will be created on a volume that belongs to the target storage group instead of the volume that you specified for the File Access Log Backup Output Volume Name (OPLFILEBKVOL).

UNIT Name of Operation Log Output Data Set (OPLUNIT)

When you specify the Command Execution Log Backup Output Data Set Name (OPLCMDBK) or the File Access Log Backup Output Data Set Name (OPLFILEBK) and the generation files are to be created on an SMS-managed volume, the unit information that is registered for the storage group overrides the value that is specified for the UNIT Name of Operation Log Output Data Set (OPLUNIT).
