Pritesh,

Speak with your storage team.

Hi,

Assuming that you have the RACF (or other security product) authority to do this, something like below should work -

As a storage person I would recommend that you first have a word with your friendly, sociable and helpful storage team before doing this.

1) MGMTCLAS definitions are set up for a purpose, and if you wish to deviate from that purpose / standard it is advisable to refer the matter to the storage team, as many like myself will merely delete a users dataset where the user has deemed to change the MGMTCLAS without informing me. See below.

2) Changes via IDCAMS to the MGMTCLAS may cause errors / problems in HSM housekeeping which will need to be investigated and corrected by the storage team, who tend to get a little upset at doing this because someone has deemed to change the MGMTCLAS on a whim.

Od311 -

When issuing a command from 3.4, the "/" sign stands for the dataset name.
