CXXMAINT (Maintain Directory) › CXXMAINT ALTER DSN (Modify Data Set Name) › When to Use

When to Use

During the INIT function, CA Datacom/DB saves the data set name (DSN) for Index or data areas in the Directory. Use the CXXMAINT ALTER DSN option to modify the DSN for reporting purposes and, optionally, to change the DSN used for dynamic allocation. This eliminates having to reinitialize the Index or data areas to change the DSN in the Directory.

You can use this option with a database open in a Multi-User Facility.
