Figure 7-3d. Account Data Parameters Panel
Specify the following parameters.
ACCOUNT DATA PARAMETERS
TRANSMISSION The mode by which the data is transferred,
MODE: whether via spool (NJE or similar mechanism)
or via tape (as a sequential file). Valid
values are:
SPOOL - Send data via NJE.
FILE - Send data via sequential file.
If FILE is selected, you must code
the ACCOUNT.OUTPUT section of the
VMTFDEF exit.
See Section 10.1 for further
information about VMTFDEF.
DATA SOURCE: The file type of the data. Valid values are:
SPOOL - The data being transferred is read
from the VM spool.
FILE - The data being transferred is read
from a sequential file.
See Section 10.1 for further
information about VMTFDEF.
If FILE is selected, you must code
the ACCOUNT.INPUT section of the
VMTFDEF exit.
If the VM Data Transfer Program runs in
automatic mode with VMTWAITR transferring
disk-resident files, the following parameters
can be provided for source data disk
information: USERID, VIRTUAL ADDRESS, READ
PASSWORD, and LINKED AS. Refer to Section
9.1.2 for further information about VMTWAITR.
USERID: A VM userid whose entry in the system
directory contains the data disk. Specify
USERID, VIRTUAL ADDRESS, and READ PASSWORD
only if the data disk is not made available
to the VM Data Transfer Program via system
directory or anywhere before invoking
VMTWAITR.
VIRTUAL The virtual device address of the data disk
ADDRESS: as defined in the specified userid's entry in
the system directory.
READ PASSWORD: The read access password of the data disk as
defined in the system directory for the
specified userid.
LINKED AS: A virtual address to be assigned to the data
disk when it is linked by the VM Data
Transfer Program. Valid value is a 1- to
4-hexadecimal digit minidisk address.
If the data disk has been linked before the
VM Data Transfer Program is invoked, specify
the linked address as defined here and leave
USERID as the default (********).
If an asterisk (*) is coded here, the VM Data
Transfer Program assigns a virtual address by
itself when it comes to link the data disk.
DATA Specify whether or not the data being
COMPRESSION?: transferred is compressed before
transmission. Valid values are:
Y - Yes. Perform data compression.
N - No. Bypass data compression.
RECORD Specify whether or not the data being
SELECTION?: transferred is based on data selection
criteria. Valid values for this parameter
are:
Y - Yes. Perform data selection.
N - No. Bypass data selection.
If Y is specified, the ACCOUNT SELECT
parameter file determines the record
selection criteria for account data. If
data selection is requested but the
ACCOUNT SELECT parameter file does not
exist, the default selection criteria
will be used. See Figure 3-1 for the
default selection criteria. Use PF key
4 to edit the ACCOUNT SELECT file for
record selection (see Additional Panel
Functions).
INPUT DATA Specify whether or not the input data file
ARCHIVE?: should be saved as part of the transfer
process. This option causes the data to be
saved before record selection is performed.
Valid values are:
Y - Yes. Save the input data before
eliminating records via the record
selection process.
N - No. Transfer the data without archiving.
If Y is specified, you must code the
ACCOUNT.ARCHIVE section of the VMTFDEF
exit.
See Section 10.1 for further information
about VMTFDEF.
OUTPUT DATA Specify whether or not the output data file
DUPLEX?: should be saved as a part of the program.
This option causes the data to be saved
following the record selection process and
before data compression. Valid values are:
Y - Yes. Save the data following the record
selection process.
N - No. Do not save the selected records
before data data compression.
If Y is specified, you must code the
ACCOUNT.DUPLEX section of the VMTFDEF
exit.
See Section 10.1 for further information
about VMTFDEF.
JCL FILE The CMS file identifier for the JCL used when
NAME: transferring data via NJE. Separate files
(used for are used for each data source. Any CMS file
spool identifier is valid. Section 7.2 includes
transmission) sample JCL.
TRANSFER TO A VM system userid that receives the
USERID: successfully processed reader file.
ADDITIONAL PANEL FUNCTIONS
HELP: Use the VM Data Transfer Help Facility.
QUIT: Leave without saving.
REFRESH: Replace the data entry fields with the
last entries that were FILEd.
FILE: Save all displayed parameters and exit to the
previous panel.
DEFAULTS: Display the distributed default parameters.
CREATE/EDIT Use PF key 4 to create or edit the SELECT
SELECT FILE: file only if you have specified Y for the
Record Selection parameter. See Section 7.2
for a description of this panel.
CREATE/EDIT Use PF key 5 to edit the data transfer JCL.
JOB CONTROL: See Section 7.2 for a description of this
panel.
