I support DFSMS at our shop but have no training and little experience.
We only SMS manage certain types of datasets in our shop. In this particular case I have a batch job that I'd like to use an SMS Storclas to solve a consistant space problem due to large allocations for a particular dataset(&&TEMP). Since we don't manage everything SMS is ignoring the STORCLAS= parameter when coded in the JCL.
When I run the same JCL it works for me as our previous SMS administrator defined a group of TEC IDS that can override SMS ACS routings SC/MG/SG/DC by accepting whatever is specified. If I add the userid for CA7 to this list, could someone list some possible fallouts/gotchas? CA7 runs ALL our production batch jobs.

jsrueg,

Why not simply add the Job name to SMS storclas parm ? i.e define a family code for all jobs requiring huge space.

ex: ABC

Now any job names which starts with ABC will use the sms storclas allocation.
