Using the VTOC Utility screen, you can identify the volumes to be involved in the processing according to a list of Volume serials or wildcarded Volume serials and a list of Unit names or wildcarded Unit names. The VTOC Utility Data Set List screen contains a line item for each data set that matches the wildcarded DSN, if specified, within any of the selected volumes.

To perform various CA File Master Plus functions for any of the listed data sets, type an action code to the left of the DSN.

The SORT primary command can be used to sort the line items by any of the column titles. The syntax of the SORT command is:

SORT ccc a  

where 'ccc' is three or more positions of the column title and a is 'A' (ascending) or 'D' (descending).

When the second positional parameter (A or D) is omitted, a descending sort is done for the Trks,Created, and 'referenced' columns and an ascending sort is done for all other columns. If the first positional parameter (column name) is omitted, the line items are sorted ascending by DSN.

To locate line items whose DSN contain specified character strings, you can use the FIND primary command.

The list of data sets and all of the fields on each line item can be printed with a primary command of P

Each line item contains the following fields for each data set.
