I don't know any way to throttle ADSM to make it do one move process at a
time.

When I need to do a lot of moves, I use a console automation tool to find
the message that a move has completed (ANR1141I) and then drive a clist
which reads a file of volume serial number and then issues a move command
for it.

Hi ADSM-ers!
I have about 3000 datasets (we use FILE as storage type) that have the read-only
 status and they are partially filled. I want to consolidate this data so lesser
 mounts (the datasets are migrated to tape after ADSM is done with them and to p
revent a recall we updated the access status to read-only every day) are necessa
ry for restores.
I planned this action for the next weekend and I'm doing some testing with the M
OVE DATA command in the batch.
When I issue the command for all the datasets to be moved a background process i
s started for every move. This will start numerous processes which consume a ver
y large amount of CPU.
How can I control this? I would like ADSM to move the datasets one at the time.
Thanks in advance for any reply!
kindest regards,
