Hi

Thanks for the updates. Now I am able to run sas code with mainframe.

In mainframe we have HRECALL utilily which is used to recall the migrated dataset. Can anyone send me that code. My assignment is to recall the migrated dataset by using HRECALL and that I have to do by using SAS with Mainframe. Please ping me the code if anyone have with sas. If not in sas then send me code use only mainframe.

Thanks

The code used to recall a migrated dataset is IBM property and the property of IBM alone and therefor not available for general release.

As you have discovered, hopefully for yourself, that the HRECALL command will in fact recall a migrated dataset, so all you need to do is to execute the HRECALL command for each dataset that you want recalled.

So as a clue, you will need to determine the required datasets, check to see if they are migrated or not and then to recall the datasets required.

However, IMHO SAS is NOT the ideal tool to do this.

Oh, by the way, if you ask for code you will more than likely be asked for money before any code is surrendered. This is a HELP forum, and not a DO IT FOR ME forum

what kind of silly requirement is that ?
HRECALL is not an utility, is a <command> which instructs HSM to recall a migrated dataset!

You/all around You should review Your understanding of things

Hi

Thanks for the updates. As per expat reply "you will need to determine the required datasets, check to see if they are migrated or not and then to recall the datasets required". Can you please suggest me how I can see what dataset are migrated and then how I can recall through any program not manually. Manually we can do but i want to do this through any program.

Regards

Have you discussed this "requirement" with your site storage management personnel? They usually spend a lot of time and energy designing appropriate migration policies for HSM and having some applicaiton programmer (or programming group) completely negate their policies can lead to negative consequences.

Hello,

Well-managed systems do not want developers performing wholesale recalls of migrated datasets. Many do not even allow developers to issue HRECALL.

If there is some business reason to do this automated recall, your management and the storage admins should be involved.

If you are doing this just for your (and possibly some others') convenience - be aware that this may generate an unfavorable response. . .

The below SAS program calls REXX and executes the TSO HRECALL command.
