Multivolume Data Sets

CA XCOM Data Transport supports multivolume data sets, that is, files residing on more than one disk pack. However, ISPF does not support multivolume data sets. Consequently, neither does the CA XCOM Data Transport Menu Interface. Use the Batch Interface when processing multivolume data sets.

Note: If the multivolume data set is an output file, it must be pre-allocated. In this situation, FILEOPT=REPLACE must be used.
