Description

This article is from the storage FAQ part2, by Rodney D. Van Meter with numerous contributions by others.

3.19 Mainframe

    IBM also has HSM for MVS, called, imaginatively, HSM.

There is the storage home page.  http://www.storage.ibm.com/storage/ I
have also found references to System Managed Storage SMS and HSM and
DFHSM (Data Facility Hierarchical Storage Manager) but could find no
online information.  There are probably manuals like DFHSM Version 2
Release 5.0, General Information manual (GH35-0092) if you are a real
glutton for punishment and have a friend at ibm.

So we have ADSM and DFHSM and DFSMS and probably others.  But not much
online information.  Sorry.

A little searching from the http://www.ibm.com might turn up something
too.
