Controlled Datasets
BIM-EPIC controls datasets best when they are known to its Dataset Name (DSN) Catalog.
The information contained in the records that make up a DSN Catalog entry determines how
a dataset is processed.
With DSN Catalog control of a dataset, BIM-EPIC specifies the following:
•
where each existing version is written and where new versions can be written
• how each version is written (allocation size, block size, density, multi-dataset, and so
on)
• how long each version is retained and how many versions are kept at one time
•
processing statistics for each version (creation date, last access date, block count)
•
each tape version’s vault location
