ABSTRACT:
The media management system uses a rule based system to manage the media assignment function for a data processor. This apparatus comprises a set of software programs that communicate in real time with various standard software components on the data processor and also retrieves information describing data stored on the data storage devices themselves to compile information concerning data set activity. The media management system reviews data set size, off-site requirements for the data set, space available on DASD as well as other data set characteristics to dynamically select the most appropriate media type and specific device to store the data set. In addition, the media management system dynamically adjusts the data set management policy based upon detected patterns of customer usage of data sets and the size of the data sets that are stored on the peripheral devices in order to meet the customer's specified requirements for availability, accessibility, performance, location (local, remote), retention and security.
