Any reason you don’t have DFHSM CDSs backed up straight to VTL tape? It is an 
option.

When I had a system, I had the HSM CDS backup datasets pre-allocated (4 each) 
on non-SMS volumes with sufficient space. DFHSM then rotated between them. This 
is the way the DFHSM starter set (there is sample JCL) originally set things 
up. BCD's

BCD's can grow significantly, especially if EXPIREBV is not run on a regular 
basis. My daily DFHSM maintenance job included three EXPIREBV commands. I also 
had it issue a few of the QUERY commands so that I usually didn't get surprised 
by these back-up space failures.
