BUILDARC Command Syntax

The BUILDARC command syntax is:

BUILDARC	DSNAME=,VOLUME=,TYPE=,ARCTYPE=,EXPDT=,FAST=

DSNAME=

This required parameter must provide the data set name to be placed in the archvols entry.

VOLUME=

This required parameter lists volumes (either tape or disk) that contain the CA Disk archive data set. As is the case with system created archive volume records, the first volume serial, if tape, becomes the record key. For disk volumes, CA Disk will generate a key.

TYPE=

Specify DASD, TAPE, 3480, 3490 or DYN1 to DY20 to indicate the type of devices you listed for the VOL= parameter.

Note: Specifying 3480 is acceptable for 3480, 3490 and DYN1 to DY20 devices.

ARCTYPE=

Specify PRIME or COPY to indicate whether the ARCHVOLS record being built is to be flagged as the primary index entry or a duplicate copy entry.

EXPDT=

The expiration date in an accepted CA Disk format that is to be to be assigned to the new ARCHVOLS record.

FAST=

Specify YES or NO to indicate whether the ARCHVOLS record being built is to be flagged as containing Fast Archive data sets or not.
