How to Use CULEVSAM

Define the VSAM file to which the records are written in the CULE step of the CA Culprit JCL.

System	JCL statement
z/OS	//SYS020 DD DSN=cluster.name,DISP=SHR cluster.name = VSAM file cluster name as defined in the IDCAMS jobs that created this file
z/VSE	// ASSGN SYS020,DISK,VOL=nnnnnn,SHR // DLBL SYS020,'cluster.name',,VSAM,CAT=IJSYSCT // EXTENT SYS020,nnnnnn nnnnnn = volume serial name of disk containing the VSAM data set cluster.name = name of the VSAM cluster as defined in the IDCAMS job that created this data set
z/VM	VSAM files are not supported.

System

JCL statement

z/OS

//SYS020 DD DSN=cluster.name,DISP=SHR

cluster.name = VSAM file cluster name as defined

in the IDCAMS jobs that created this file

z/VSE

// ASSGN SYS020,DISK,VOL=nnnnnn,SHR

// DLBL SYS020,'cluster.name',,VSAM,CAT=IJSYSCT

// EXTENT SYS020,nnnnnn

nnnnnn = volume serial name of disk containing

the VSAM data set

cluster.name = name of the VSAM cluster as defined

in the IDCAMS job that created this

data set

z/VM

VSAM files are not supported.

To invoke CULEVSAM:

First—Specify CULEVSAM on an OUTPUT parameter using the UM option:

Col
2
▼
RPT-nnOUTPUT UM(CULEVSAM ,sequence-type-a)

Rpt-nn, coded in columns 2 and 3, requires a 2-digit report number in the range 00 through 99.
Sequence-type-a, preceded by a comma, requires the output VSAM file type:

Use...	For...
ES	Output to an entry-sequenced VSAM file
KS	Output to a key-sequenced VSAM file
RS	Output to a relative-sequenced VSAM file

Second—Describe the output VSAM records on type 5 parameters.
