TMSUPDTE Control Statements - Correcting Multivolume Pointers

The samples below assume that PARM=NODSN was coded.

• Clear a volume with invalid multivolume pointers to make available for scratch processing:

  VOL nnnnnn,NOCHAIN
  REP DSN=HEXZEROS
  REP 1STVOL=HEXZEROS
  REP NEXTVOL=HEXZEROS
  REP PREVVOL=HEXZEROS
  REP VOLSEQ=1
  REP EXPDT=current-date
  

• Repair a broken multivolume chain:

  VOL nnnnnn,NOCHAIN
  REP DSN=valid-data-set-name
  REP 1STVOL=valid-VOLSER
  REP NEXTVOL=valid-VOLSER
  REP PREVVOL=valid-VOLSER
  REP VOLSEQ=valid-volseq
