DD Statements

The following is a list of the DD statements for the CA Vtape SVTSUTIL program:

BSDS1

Defines the CA Vtape Boot Strap Data Set being processed. Note that DISP=OLD is required when running the INITIALIZE=BSDS1 and EXPAND CDS commands.

COMMANDS

Input data set containing START RECALL commands to be issued by the SVTSUTIL MASSRECALL command. This input is normally supplied to the ISSUECMDS step in CCUUJCL member RCALMANY, having been generated by the preceding steps.

GLOBAL

Defines the CA Vtape Global VCAT being processed.

LDSnnnnn

Defines the CA Vtape Linear Data Set being processed.

SVTPARMS

Defines the resident library for member SVTPARMS (that is, PREFIX.SVTJCL or parmlib). The DD statement can include a member name.

When a partitioned data set is defined without a member name, the default member name SVTPARMS is used.

The SVTPARMS DD statement is required by the following CA Vtape utility functions:

INITIALIZE=VCAT - Initialize a new Local VCAT.
LDS_DELETE - Delete a Static Cache LDS.
LDS_INITIALIZE=LDSnnnnn - Initialize a Static Cache LDS.

SYSIN

Defines a sequential data set, PDS member, or instream data set with 80-character records containing CA Vtape Utility control statements.

CA Vtape utility batch commands are defined between column one (1) and fifty (50) on the control statement. Comment statements are defined by placing an asterisk (*) in column one (1). Blank control statement lines or records are permitted and are written to the SYSPRINT DD.

SYSPRINT

Defines a sequential data set used for the utility output reports and messages. The following DCB attributes are used:

DCB=(LRECL=132,BLKSIZE=1320,RECFM=FB,DSORG=PS)

SYSUT1

Defines a sequential data set required for the following utility control statements:

EXTRACT - Defines a Backstore Tape data set name used as input.
SCRATCH - Defines an input file created by the EXTRACT,SCRATCH_INFORMATION function.
RECOVER=BACKSTORE - Defines an SMF input sequential file in which SMF Type 65 records are read and processed by the RECOVER=BACKSTORE command.

DCB attributes for this DD change, based on the batch command coded.

SYSUT2

Defines a sequential data set required for the following utility control statements:

EXTRACT - Defines the output device to write the application data set to.
SCRATCH - Defines a data set containing a list of Virtual VOLSERs to be scratched.
GENERATE - Defines the output data set to write the generated information to.
RECOVER=BACKSTORE

DCB attributes for this DD change, based on the batch command coded.

UTLDSDEF

Defines an output sequential file, PDS member, or JES SYSOUT required for the LDS_DELETE command. You can use a JES SYSOUT in SIMULATE mode only. The following DCB attributes are required:

DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=6160)

UTLDSINI

Defines an output sequential file, PDS member, or JES SYSOUT required for the LDS_DELETE command. You can use a JES SYSOUT in SIMULATE mode only. The following DCB attributes are required:

DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=6160)

UTLPRINT

Defines a sequential data set required for the LDS_DELETE command. The following DCB attributes are used:

DCB=(LRECL=125,RECFM=VBA,DSORG=PS,BLKSIZE=27998)

UTLWKnn

Defines sequential data sets required for the LDS_DELETE, LIST=BACKSTORE, and RECOVER=BACKSTORE commands.

VCAT

Defines the CA Vtape Local VCAT being processed. Note that DISP=OLD is required when running the INITIALIZE=VCAT and RECOVER=GLOBAL commands.
