SET MODE= Command Parameters

The following parameters are available to the SET MODE= command:

SIMULATE

Specifies that this is a simulation run. In simulate mode, CA Disk will produce the normal messages and reports as if processing had taken place in LIVE mode, but will not alter any data sets.

To switch the processing environment into LIVE mode, simply comment out the SET statement by placing an asterisk (*) in column 1, or change the value to LIVE.

LIVE

This parameter is optional and the default value for the SET MODE= command. By specifying LIVE, you are instructing CA Disk to execute the XCOPY command in live mode. Datasets selected by the SELECT DSN= command will be processed according to XCOPY parameters.
