General Information

The value specified in statement DO STKMODE indicates how the Dynamic Dataset Stacking facility should search for a volume on which to stack the data set or data sets whose access triggered this rule. The selected search method can influence volume utilization and the resources required to search the Media Database for a matching volume.

If no DO STKMODE statement is specified in a rule, the value specified for Control-M/Tape installation parameter STKMODE determines the algorithm that is used to stack the data set.

Note: Installation parameter STKMODE was called DYNSTYP prior to version 5.1.4.
