Allocating Data Sets

We recommend that you create a high-level qualifier in DSNPREFX. This parameter gives you a single high-level qualifier that is appended to each monitor data set as the first qualifier. Security can be defined with a universal access (UACC) of READ.

Business Value:

Defining this high-level qualifier helps simplify security tasks and the maintenance of the monitor data sets.

Additional Information:

Verify that the resulting data set is within the MVS limit of 44 characters. You can define SMS rules to migrate data sets beginning with this high-level qualifier. The MATUNER STC needs Create/Allocate authority.
