CA Dynam for VSE User Guide

Using Other Software with CA Dynam/T
TDYNASN allows AVR to function while fulfilling the pre-OPEN requirements of
these packages. You must be familiar with TDYNASN before attempting to use
AVR for tape files processed by the following packages:
• Sorts
• Tape Utilities
• DUMP/RESTORE Packages
• Source Library Maintenance Packages
• Report Writer Packages
Using the TDYNASN OPEN/CLOSE Function
Tape files which are not opened and closed using tape DTFs can nevertheless
be placed under CA Dynam/T control through use of the TDYNASN
OPEN/CLOSE function. Do not use TDYNASN DUMMY assignments for this type
of file or for any file that uses physical IOCS without performing a logical
OPEN. For more information about TDYNASN, see the chapter "Supporting
Tape File Management."
Processing FORTRAN Tape Files
Use DTFCP, a special device-independent DTF, to process FORTRAN tape files.
You must provide a TLBL for the tape file to be controlled to activate standard
label support for FORTRAN tape files. The FORTRAN file dtfname is IJSYSnn,
where nn is the last two digits of the logical unit that accesses the files. For
example, this is the TLBL for the file accessed using SYS004:
// TLBL IJSYS04,'DSN'
FORTRAN Support Exceptions
CA Dynam/T does not support the REWIND and UNLOAD tape control options
because of the FORTRAN DTF type. Also, you cannot release work data sets at
CLOSE or use FORTRAN tape files that violate VSE LIOCS conventions for tape
files.
CA Dynam/T does not support multifile FORTRAN data sets.
