Step 8: Create Control-M/Tape Rules

Use this step to create rules to identify all aspects of removable media management (for example, retention, vaulting, and pooling). BMC recommends that all rules be created in one rule table (member).

Note: If your site uses an External Data Manager such as DFSMShsm or CA-Disk, you must create Control-M/Tape rules to identify the relevant datasets as EDM-controlled. Each Control-M/Tape rule used for this purpose must include a DO RETENTION=EDM statement.

For more information about Control-M/Tape support for EDMs, see the Control-M/Tape chapter of the Control-M/Tape Implementation Guide.

For more information about Control-M/Tape rules, see the online facilities, rule parameters, and organization and administration chapters of the Control-M/Tape User Guide.
