Figure 124. IDCAMS Definition Extract for BSDS

Figure 125 on page 190 shows the ISPF data set list, displaying the BSDSs created in this test, and the volumes on which they were allocated, using the attributes assigned by SMS. By using the GUARANTEED SPACE parameter in the Storage Class definition, the data sets were positioned specifically on different volumes on different RVAs to enhance integrity.
