Function:  Graphically represents the usage of DFSMS classes
           by department.

           Monitors the use of various DFSMS classes.  It
           provides a view of what departments are using a
           particular class, detects potential violations,
           and ensures that DFSMS is assigning classes
           correctly.

           DFSMS classes are set either by the user or by the
           DFSMS ACS routines, and are used to group data
           sets with similar attributes and needs.

Features:  The user specifies the type of class to be
           summarized (data class, storage class, storage
           group, or management class).  The chart shows the
           class names and the amount of space used by each
           department.

           Users can report class usage based on one or more
           of the account fields, one or more data set name
           nodes, or by using a user-defined table that
           translates the data set name prefix into an owner
           description.

           Both color graphics and printer charts are
           supported.


SMS        This report is useful during SMS implementation to
Issues:    ensure that your SMS ACS routines are assigning
           class names as designed.  After SMS
           implementation, the report is useful for
           monitoring the usage of SMS classes by various
           departments/users.

COLUMN DESCRIPTIONS

    Storage Class
           The name of the DFSMS Storage Class for which this
           chart applies.  A value of '(NONE)' is used to
           represent data sets that have not been assigned to
           any class.  The report options screen is used to
           select which of the four DFSMS constructs (Storage
           Class, Management Class, Data Class, or Storage
           Group) will appear on this chart.

    Management Class
           The name of the DFSMS Management Class for which
           this chart applies.  A value of '(NONE)' is used
           to represent data sets that have not been assigned
           to any class.  The report options screen is used
           to select which of the four DFSMS constructs
           (Storage Class, Management Class, Data Class, or
           Storage Group) will appear on this chart.

    Data Class
           The name of the DFSMS Data Class for which this
           chart applies.  A value of '(NONE)' is used to
           represent data sets that have not been assigned to
           any class.  The report options screen is used to
           select which of the four DFSMS constructs (Storage
           Class, Management Class, Data Class, or Storage
           Group) will appear on this chart.

    Storage Group
           The name of the DFSMS Storage Group for which this
           chart applies.  A value of '(NONE)' is used to
           represent data sets that have not been assigned to
           any group.  The report options screen is used to
           select which of the four DFSMS constructs (Storage
           Class, Management Class, Data Class, or Storage
           Group) will appear on this chart.  Because Storage
           Group is not available for data sets managed by
           HSM, values of 'HSM LV1' (migration level 1), 'HSM
           LV2' (migration level 2) and 'HSM BACK' (HSM
           backup) will appear in this column for HSM data.

    Pie Slices
           Each slice of the pie represents the total amount
           of space allocated by the users of this DFSMS
           class or group, expressed in millions of bytes
           (megabytes).

    Pie Labeling
           The label for each pie slice contains the name of
           the group represented by that slice.  These
           summarization groups can be constructed using one
           or more VCA account elements, one or more nodes of
           the data set name, or using a value derived from
           your Data Set Group table.
