CA Dynam for VSE User Guide

Tape File Management Utilities
REMOVE
Optional. Removes all catalog entries for a particular CPUID.
Detailed descriptions of the commands follow, presented in alphabetical order.
APPLY Command
The APPLY command takes as input one of the two output files from the SYNC
processing and updates the CA Dynam Catalog with tape volume status
information. When the CA Dynam/T TDYNSYNC APPLY commands for each CA
Dynam Catalog, and the equivalent commands for each participating database
(such as DYNUPDTE for CA 1 MVS) are completed, the tape management
systems will be synchronized with respect to tape volume status.
Format:
APPLY
Examples:
// JOB APPLY // JOB APPLY
// DLBL CAT1IN,'DOSVSE.APPLY' - OR - // TLBL CAT1IN,'DOSVSE.APPLY'
// EXTENT SYS004, // ASSGN SYS004,CUU
// ASSGN SYS004,CUU // EXEC TDYNSYNC,SIZE=128K
// EXEC TDYNSYNC,SIZE=128K APPLY

Note:
• TDYNSYNC output files can be created on disk or on tape.
• The dtfname for the input file must be specified as CAT1IN, even if the file
being used as input was created using dtfname CAT2OUT from the SYNC
step.
• TDYNSYNC can only APPLY data to the CA Dynam Catalog. To update
volume status information for the CA 1 TMC, use the CA 1 supplied
DYNUPDTE utility.
• The default dtfname of the catalog from which the volume status
information is to be extracted is CAICATL. If you are extracting data from
another catalog, use the CATNAME control statement to specify the
dtfname of the catalog.
