Huge SORT ans Storage Group

Postby samb01 » Mon Oct 28, 2019 3:18 pm

hello, in our Production, we have Huge dataset to sort.
But there is not enought space to sort those dataset.
So we created a special Storage Group to do the sort with this sysin :


//SGD.SORTWK01 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK01,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK02 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK02,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK03 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK03,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK04 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK04,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK05 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK05,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK06 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK06,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK07 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK07,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK08 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK08,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE
//SGD.SORTWK09 DD DSN=TEMP.SORT.WORK09,DISP=(,DELETE),        
//  SPACE=(CYL,8500),STORCLAS=BIGSORT,VOL=(,,,1),DSNTYPE=LARGE

 


My question is : Instead of creating a special Storage Group, should we create more DASD Volume in Public Volume : it is the DASD System Volume non-sms managed whiche each sort use by default.

Actually, we just have two DASD Public Volume with 9 Gigas each one.

In the new creating Storage Group : GBIGSORT, we have tne DASD Volume with 27 Gigas each one.

May i Have to created ten DASD Volume non-sms managed in the Public DASD Volume ?
