Adding or Changing DMS volumes

These steps are part of the larger task of creating or altering a storage group. When you complete the steps for creating or adding DMS storage group volumes, return to the Create or Alter Storage Group task.

DMS storage is managed by DB2. Using, DMS, you define the volumes of the storage group.

To add a DSM volume:

  1. In the Volume name field, type a volume serial number of a storage volume. It can have a maximum of six characters and is specified as an identifier or a string constant. There is an MVS limit of 59 volumes that can be defined and allocated per data set.

  2. Click OK to add the volume name to the DMS volumes list.
