Use the VMTSPLIT Utility to create an export file, from a CMS format CA VM:Tape TMC, which can be used by the CA 1 TMSMERGE Utility as an import input dataset. The VMTSPLIT Utility is a standalone utility program that is intended to be run from the CA VM:Tape server virtual machine when CA VM:Tape is not active.
You will need to use this utility if you are taking one or more CA VM:Tape CMS format TMC files and combining them with one or more z/OS CA 1 TMC files to create a single z/OS CA 1 TMC to be shared by all VM:Tape systems and CA 1 on z/OS. After you run the VMTSPLIT Utility, you will need to reconfigure VM:Tape to run with the shared CA 1 z/OS TMC that is created after the CA 1 TMSMERGE Utility is run on z/OS.
Note: For more information about setting up and sharing a z/OS CA 1 TMC, see Sharing the CA 1 TMC.
The VMTSPLIT Utility is the CA VM:Tape equivalent to the CA 1 TMSSPLIT Utility that performs the first half of a CA 1 split/merge operation, creating an export file of TMC records to be used by TMSMERGE.
VMTSPLIT creates the 366-byte record for each volser in the TMC with the required control information needed by the CA 1 TMSMERGE Utility. The VMTSPLIT Utility uses a single CMS format CA VM:Tape TMC as input. If you need to merge, and/or add, and/or delete records from the TMC you want to use as input to VMTSPLIT, use the CA VM:Tape VMTBUILD Utility to generate the TMC.
Note: For more information about the CA VM:Tape VMTBUILD Utility, see Utility Reference. For more information about the CA 1 TMSSPLIT Utility or the CA 1 TMSMERGE Utility, see the CA 1 Utilities and Reports Reference Guide.
VMTSPLIT generates two output reports that are equivalent to the CA 1 TMSSPLIT Report 50 and Report 52. Report 50 is a detailed list containing one line per volser included in the export file. Report 52 is a pull list of volsers included in the export file, it lists 10 volsers per output line.
