SGDBACTL

Storage Group intended for BSDSs and active logs for all

 

 

 

non-production DB2 subsystems. Because the corresponding

 

 

 

Storage Class has guaranteed space defined as yes, the DB2

 

 

 

administrator can direct the allocation of the data sets on volumes

 

 

 

which are dedicated to a specific DB2 subsystem.

 

 

SGDB2PLG

Storage Group intended for BSDSs and active logs for the

 

 

 

production DB2P subsystem. The Storage Class contains the

 

 

 

volumes for the DB2P subsystem. The DB2 administrator can

 

 

 

direct the allocation of the data sets on specific volumes of this

 

 

 

Storage Group. Because guaranteed space is used for the

 

 

 

SGDBACTL and SGDB2PLG Storage Groups, it is not strictly

 

 

 

necessary to create a separate SMS Storage Group for each DB2

 

 

 

subsystem, it simply is one of the many choices available to the

 

 

 

DB2 administrator.

7.1.5 Assigning SMS Classes to DB2 Recovery Data Sets

SMS classes and Storage Groups are assigned through ACS routines. The naming standard from 3.8, “DB2 Data Sets Naming Conventions” on page 22 is used for these examples. This naming standard provides ACS routines with the necessary information for deciding the SMS classes.
