A.4.7 Data Set Allocation Results

Figure 103 on page 173, using ISPF option 3.4, shows a data set list of the three table spaces defined in this exercise to the SGDBTEST Storage Group. Using standard volume selection criteria provided by SMS (see 5.3.4, “Storage Group” on page 43), the data sets were evenly distributed across the three assigned disk volumes.
