Webinar Topic: Mysteries of the Storage Group

Want to know more about the role Storage Groups play in DFSMS, and the best practices for defining and using them? On June 29, 2021, DTS CTO Steve Pryor wrapped up our four-part SMS Mysteries series with an in-depth look at the Storage Group.

What You Will Learn:
The Storage Group sits at the boundary between datasets, volumes, and storage managers such as DFSMShsm and FDRABR, critically affecting the use of each. Storage group definitions have an important impact on reliability, including on the availability of free space in the system and the placement of datasets on volumes. The June Webinar covers the role that Storage Groups play in DFSMS and the best practices for defining and using them.
