Example

Assume the following:

• Data set A resides on VOL1 and VOL2.
• Data set B resides on VOL2 (label 2) and VOL3.
• Data set A does not need to be vaulted, and data set B requires vaulting in vault REMOTE.

In this case

• If VLTBYDS1 is set to Y (Yes), volumes VOL1, VOL2 and VOL3 are not vaulted.
• If VLTBYDS1 is set to N (No), the three volumes are vaulted in REMOTE.

Note: To be compatible with other tape management systems, set VLTBYDS1 to Y.

The decision of when and between which vaults to move a volume is managed by CONTRL-T utility CTTVTM.

Note: To maintain CA-TLMS compatibility, if a vault pattern is specified in the $DEFAULT rule, the vault pattern is ignored if the JCL EXPDT parameter contains a keyword date (00xxx/01xxx). To specify the vault pattern in a different default rule, include the expression ON DATASET=* in a rule whose name is not $DEFAULT.
