3.2 ASTEX Migration Manager and CA MICS


The ASTEX Migration Manager is an optional component of ASTEX
that was released in GA status on July 11, 1994. It reduces
overall CPU and I/O requirements of HSM by selecting data
sets for migration based on historical access patterns and
probability of future access.

Previously CA-ASTEX could trigger the daily collection of
VTOC, VVDS, and HSM data instead of having an additional
collection for CA MICS. This is no longer the case.  You must
run a separate collection for ASTEX Migration Manager and for
CA MICS.
