Migrating certain quantities

The HSMS administrator and nonprivileged users can use a statement that will migrate files until the storage space made available by this process reaches a specifiable number of PAM pages:

//MIGRATE-FILES ...(RELEASE-PAGES=<zahl>)

HSMS migrates files in descending order according to inactive date, i.e. it first migrates the files which have not been accessed for the longest period of time (LAST ACCESS DATE) and continues to do so until the specified number of free pages is reached. In terms of the files, this is based on the number of occupied pages.

Even in this case, only files from the set selected via FILE-NAMES (plus additional operands) are migrated. By default (RELEASE-PAGES=*MAXIMUM), all files of this selected set are migrated.
