VOLUME

The VOLUME method exports only clusters and alternate indexes residing on the volumes listed. AIXs and paths are included in the export, even if they appear on another volume.

If EXCLUDE is specified as a sub-parameter, any clusters specified by cluster name statements are excluded.

Note: For more information about EXCLUDE, see Cluster Names: Optional Parameters.

VOLUME Usage Rules

The following usage rules apply to the VOLUME method:

Multivolume clusters are exported in their entirety even if only one of their volumes is listed.
If a catalog DDname is specified (CAT or FVRCAT) on the EXPORT statement, only that catalog is searched for clusters on the designated volumes.
When no catalog reference is made for a volume export, all catalogs pointing to the listed volumes are used. This applies only to ICF catalogs.
To exclude clusters from a VOLUME export, specify cluster name statements along with the EXCLUDE parameter.
Note: For more information, see Optional Statement: Cluster Names.
The list of volume serial numbers can be continued to other statements by coding a hyphen (-) as the last nonblank character on a line:
```
VOLUME=volser,volser, -
       volser,volser
```
Any number of volume serial numbers can be specified. They must be separated by commas.
