HSM's CRQ(Common Recall Queue) groups recalls by tape and gives the ability to 
assign priority to recalls.

Subject: How to limit HRECALLs by USER request

I have not seen a good answer on this, so I thought I would throw this out.

We have on occasion users submit 1000's of recalls at one time.  They use a 
variety of processes from TSO Batch HRECALL to a REXX process.  Of course this 
can impact other users who are looking to just get one or two datasets back.

Other than writing an exit, is there any simple approach to prevent user's from 
submitting more than X recalls at one time?  Or a way to ensure that any 
recalls submitted are grouped together by migration tape?

For example, if I submit 100 recalls that will actually need 40 different 
migration tapes.  Is there any way to get DFHSM to force the recalls to be done 
by migration volume rather than FIFO?

We are z/OS V1.12 and are using CRQ processing in DFHSM.

thanks for any insights

Lizette
