XCOMUTIL DD Statements

This section describes the DD statements that are needed to execute XCOMUTIL

There are four DD statements required to execute XCOMUTIL:

HISTIN

A sequential file consisting of CA XCOM Data Transport history records. Generally, the history file is reproduced as a sequential file prior to running XCOMUTIL. Then, HISTIN is used to input this file.

HISTOUT

The sequential output file of history records that are not deleted from the history file. Generally, after running XCOMUTIL (and receiving a 0 return code), the history file is deleted and redefined. Then, the HISTOUT file is copied back to the history file.

SYSIN

Used to enter the XCOMUTIL parameters described earlier.

SYSPRINT

XCOMUTIL prints a report providing details about the purge procedure just executed.
