What Partial Release settings do people use in the MGMTCLAS's they assign to their DB2 Image Copy datasets?
I think it should be OK to specify Yes_Immed which releases over allocated space immediately as the dataset is closed. Or possibly Cond_Immed which does the same but conditional on the dataset having a secondary space allocation value.
The only issue would be if the image copy datasets were allocated, then closed, and reopened to write the data. In that case all the primary space would be released and secondary space would need to be sufficient to cater for all the data being written. But I don't believe that is the way image copies are created, so it should be OK to do the immediate space release on close.
I have waded through manuals and internet forums but I cannot see anything specific about this, so would appreciate knowing what other places are doing with this. |

| We use Yes_Immed specifically for IC's, and Yes for a more generic MCLS that also covers IC's (but not exclusively). |
