Tags: Proceedings , 2015 , SHARE in Seattle 2015

Are you running out of z/OS addressable disk storage?  If you currently face this problem or think it might be a problem in the near future, then this session is for you.  The speaker will provide a brief overview of Extended Address Volumes (EAV) and how it can help you relieve storage constraints as well as simplify storage management by providing the ability to manage fewer, larger volumes as opposed to many small volumes.   In addition, learn more about ways to begin planning for a migration to EAV and best practices including configuring, set-up, performance, managing data with HSM, and using EAVs with Catalog, IDCAMS, DFSORT, DSS, Global Mirror, and zGlobal Mirror.-Cecilia C.
