Hello and glad I joined this community!

We have recently implemented a DFHSM backup/migration environment that works fine until now. Regarding the recycle procedure, we use this plain, common and simple JCL:

Code:

//IBMZUS2H JOB MSGCLASS=X,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
//         CLASS=A                       
//* ISSUE THE HSM COMMAND               
//HSENDCMD EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,REGION=0M   
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                   
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*                   
//SYSTSIN  DD *                         
  HSEND RECYCLE EXECUTE ALL             
/*                                       


The job works fine, but we have a tiny minor problem. Operators complain that upon submitting this job, terminal screen fills up with ARC0260I messages (ARC0260I BACKUP VOLUME XXXXXX ENTRY DELETED) and makes their life difficult, especially if too many volumes are being deleted. I looked up in SETSYS commands, in ARCCMD member but didn't find anything related.

Any help? Thank you!

Nikos.

With MPF messages can be suppressed.

Hi Peter,

They are not Console messages, they are Terminal (TSO) Messages, like as the $HASP165 messages.

A thread similar to this one,

But does not have a stright forward solution on the link. You may try some options mentioned there.

OK, actually there is a workaround.

All messages are supressed by issuing commands via MODIFY console command. So, from SDSF or any active console, the command

Code:
F DFHSM,RECYCLE EXECUTE ALL


actually does the trick. No messages appear. You can also issue this via JCL so everything works fine!

Nikos.

Thats nice Nikos. I did read about the modify parameters, but never got the idea it would give you what you wanted.
Thanks for the feedback.

nikkal - FYI you might want to look at using the PERCENTVALID parameter to ensure empty tapes are processed first and save unnecessary tape mounts. Usually best to start with PERCENTVALID(0) and work up from there and avoid doing ALL to frequently, if you have enough scratch tapes to cope. RECYCLE is very CPU intensive.
