    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for using an alias volume name for a volume to allocate space to a data set. An assignment of a plurality of volumes to a data set is maintained, wherein the volumes are configured in a storage system. A request is received to extend the data set. An alias volume name is assigned to the data set for a previously assigned volume to the data to extend the data set in response to one of the previously assigned volumes having available space to extend the data set. A base volume name is assigned to the data set for a volume not assigned to the data set in response to one of the previously assigned volumes to the data set not having available space to extend the data set.

    Abstract: A method to dynamically switch between catalog sharing protocols includes monitoring, over a period of time, access to a catalog used to index data sets. Using information gathered during this monitoring period, the method divides the period of time into intervals based on which of a plurality of sharing protocols, used to access the catalog, would provide the best performance during the respective interval. The method schedules the sharing protocols to operate during their respective intervals going forward, and switches between the sharing protocols in accordance with the schedule. In certain embodiments, switching between the sharing protocols includes temporarily operating in a hybrid mode in which multiple sharing protocols operate simultaneously. When using this hybrid mode, the switch may occur when one sharing protocol begins to perform better than the other. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for an application to provide for, in one embodiment, using hierarchical storage management to respond to a request to delete a data set by migrating the data set to another storage tier in a storage system before deleting the data set from its current location. As a result, the data set is stored on another tier to provide an opportunity to reverse the decision to delete the data set. In one embodiment, a temporary interval of time is provided to reverse the deletion decision and restore the data set from the migrated data set, before the data set is permanently deleted.

    Abstract: A method for validating control blocks in memory includes monitoring for operations configured to obtain storage space in memory. The method examines the storage space that has been obtained to identify control blocks stored in the storage space. These control blocks are then analyzed to determine whether the control blocks are valid. In certain embodiments, this may be accomplished by comparing the content of the control blocks to information in a validation table that indicates possible values and ranges of values for fields in the control blocks. If a control block is valid, the method records a date and time when the control block was validated. If a control block is not valid, the method generates a message indicating that the control block is not valid. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
