Vault Location Control Program—TDYNVLT
CA Dynam Vault Location Control is designed to help you control the location
of data sets that require off-site storage. TDYNVLT updates, verifies, and
reports on vault locations. It produces two types of reports for controlled files:
movement reports and inventory reports. For more information about
TDYNVLT reports, see the appendix “CA Dynam Report Examples."
TDYNVLT compares the current location of each version of all vault-controlled
data sets against the desired location. If the two are not the same, TDYNVLT
does the following:
• Displays the volume serial number on the movement report
• Updates the Catalog to reflect the current location
CA Dynam/T considers the tape actually moved when it appears on a
movement report. If the tape is to be kept somewhere other than the specified
location, inform CA Dynam/T with a manual update (using DYNCAT).
If this movement occurs, the tape is reported in its new location until TDYNVLT
is run again. At that time, normal rotation takes place. If the change is to be
permanent (making normal rotation undesirable), be sure to indicate the PERM
specification (PERM=YES) through DYNCAT. This specification remains intact
until the version is altered with PERM=NO.
There will also be no vault movement if any of the following is true:
• The data set is locked
• The version is $TEST
• The version is locked
