ICF Catalogs on SMS managed volumes

Hi,



Our storage team is considering no longer allocating ICF USER catalogs
on dedicated non-SMS volumes moving them into our SMS pool for system
data sets.

There is some debate here about this here. Do you do this? Do you
prevent DFHSM from doing backup and migration on ICF catalogs using
management class?

I don't see any problem with this provided they assign an appropriate
management class.

I don't think we want DFHSM trying to do data set level backup on these
but I would be interested to know what others are doing.

Best Regards,
