Hi Kelly,

Yes, there is an equivalent to DSMFMT on MVS. You first need to create the file
using IDCAMS (a standard utility on MVS; this is not part of ADSM). On MVS,
database, recovery log, and storage pool volumes exist physically as Linear
VSAM data sets.

After allocating the file with IDCAMS, you can run a batch job, calling ANRFMT
(or DSMFMT, which is an alias to the ANRFMT module) to format the LDS (Linear
Data Set) you created with IDCAMS.

Subject: Re: Adding STG POOL volumes

You can do either.  To add volume to an existing storage pool:

1. Create some volume.  In NT and AIX one would use the DSMFMT command.
Something similar for MVS, I'm sure.

2. Add the volume to the pool: Define Volume Pool_name Volume_name, where name
is the actual name of the file your created using the DSMFMT (you MVS guys might
call a file a dataset, right?).

That should do it.  I would be curious to understand the MVS equivalent of
DSMFMT.
