CIARPT — Cluster Internal Analysis Report

Generate an in-depth analysis (see CIARPT) of the physical characteristics of data in VSAM clusters. It is composed of three sections:

A detailed description of the contents of each follows later in this section.

CIA reports are not created for LDS clusters, DB2 database clusters, compressed extended KSDS clusters, KSDS extended addressability in multiple extents or index levels, or ICF catalogs as data sets themselves. IBM does not maintain all fields necessary to analyze them accurately for this report.

Generating a CIARPT requires CONTROL access to VSAM clusters, not READ access. CA Disk must read the clusters on a Control Interval level.
