MIGRATE Command

A single specific data set is explicitly moved from disk to tape by use of the MIGRATE command. More than one of these commands can be included in the input stream. Explicit requests are not limited by the sysparm options addressed in Installation Options.

The MIGRATE command syntax is:

MIGRATE DSNAME=,VOLUME=
DSNAME=

The name of the data set to be moved to tape. A relative GDG name is permitted.

VOLUME=

If the system catalog does not contain the serial number of the DASD volume on which the data set resides, this parameter is required.
