Hello,

what is an SMS

System managed storage - It is a storage management facility.(frm the other web site)


where it is actually used? why it is used?
Used on many/most IBM mainframes - to manage storage.

Asking the same queston on both web sites will not get you better answers. . . .
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
