Hi Everyone,
We have a requirement to use separate storage node for every application under same storage set. We are using ARSLOAD utility to load the documents as its a historical migration. Could anyone please advise, if ARSLOAD utility has an option to specify the storage node while loading the document into CMOD apart from the ODSCRT table entry.
-
No it does not have that option to my knowledge. You need to use the report specification EXIT which on Z/OS also requires you to SETPROG the EXIT.
The Redbook has some details on how to implement it. We are using the COBOL version and not the C version.

You simply cannot, since the storage is attached to the application group and not the application.
That simply mean the following, if you want to do that, then you need to create an application group PER document type.
Or said in another way:
You create a new application group, when you need to:
- store the documents in a separate storage
- have other kind of indexes
- have a different retention period
- have a separation of documents due to business logic (eg: don't mix countries outputs, don't mix different companies output, ...)
And no, again, you simply cannot tell arsload where you want to store your document. This is define with your application group, that means (again), that if you want to store the document somewhere else, then you must change your application group destination with the option -g of arsload. That's your one and only way to do it.

Hi,
you cannot do it directly. But using the archive definition exit you can configure the node that shall be used for the current load.

Hello Egon,
Thanks, I've learned something new :-D
