TEST: Forcing TEST Mode

When TEST mode is asserted in the constraints, CA Hyper-Buf performs all buffering calculations, but does not actually implement the calculated buffer space. The calculated values are displayed if MSGLEVEL is 1 or greater.

The calculated buffers are displayed following message GVB668I, which identifies the values as being TEST values. These values are only displayed and not implemented for this OPEN. Normal VSAM buffering is in effect, and the buffers are determined strictly from AMP, ACB, and catalog parameters by VSAM, as though CA Hyper-Buf was not active at all.
