SMS class block
These options allow you to specify the classes to use for SMS allocations.
You can repeat this block to specify more than one type of SMS class.
You must enclose the class names for each of the class types in parentheses and you must separate them with a comma. Use the keyword NONE instead of the class name if you do not want to specify a class for dynamic data set allocation.
The THRESHLD installation option or command option determines how the utility selects the classes that you specify here. This value applies to the secondary device type that you specify with the UNIT option (or, if applicable, through SMS).
DSNUTILB reorganization jobs
When invoking DSNUTILB, the utility includes these classes in the TEMPLATE control statement that it builds for the IBM utility.
If building a secondary TEMPLATE control statement for your copy data sets, the utility includes the secondary classes in that template. For information about building a secondary template, see the THRESHLD option.
Specifying the default
You can specify the default for the SMS class block in your installation options module by using the DATACLAS, MGMTCLAS, or STORCLAS installation options. The utility was shipped with default values of (NONE,NONE) for these options. The command options override the default that is in the installation options module.
DATACLAS
DATACLAS indicates the primary and secondary SMS data classes to use for allocating the specified data set type. For class1 and class2, specify valid SMS data class names that do not exceed eight characters each.
MGMTCLAS
MGMTCLAS indicates the primary and secondary SMS management classes to use for allocating the specified data set type. For class1 and class2, specify valid SMS management class names that do not exceed eight characters each.
STORCLAS
STORCLAS indicates the primary and secondary SMS storage classes to use for allocating the specified data set type. For class1 and class2, specify valid SMS storage class names that do not exceed eight characters each.
