CA Dynam for VSE User Guide

DYNCAT Commands
8, 9 These define the DASD work files for BG and F1 to be used in conjunction
with the partition- and CPU-independent data set name feature of CA
Dynam/D. The files are to be allocated in the POOL01 pool with a primary
allocation of 57 tracks and up to 3 secondary allocations of 19 tracks each.
10 This defines a sort key record in the Catalog, with a name PAY220KY. The
sort key to be used is as indicated. This information may be used by CA
Dynam/FI for automatic sorting through the CA SRAM interface.
11 This defines a Catalog entry with information to be used by CA Dynam
when processing 'FICHE.FILE'. CA Dynam/FI will modify the DTF to a tape
DTF, and reblock it as indicated; double buffering will be used, and CA
Dynam/T will control the tape, retaining 2 generations. Any CNTRL macros
issued by the original program will be ignored.
12 This defines to the Catalog an existing file 'MASTER.PAYROLL' which is a
fixed extent file consisting of 3 extents on three volumes as indicated.
Defining Sort Key Records
Sort key records are used in conjunction with CA Dynam/FI. For more
information, see the chapter "Controlling File Independence." To define the
characteristics of sort key entries, the following operands apply to the DEFINE
command:
The format of the command is shown below.
DEFINE SKNAME='skname'
FIELDS=(nnnn,nnnn,format,A|D....)
[ FORMAT= {CH|BI|ZD|PD|FI|FL|CSL|CTO|CST|CLO|AQ } ]
[ RECFM= {F|V } ]
SKNAME='skname'
Required positional parameter. Specifies the sort key name record to be
defined. This parameter is mutually exclusive with the 'data set name'
parameter. A valid entry is a 1- to 8-character sort key name.
FIELDS= FIELDS=(s1,l1,t1,m1,s2,l2,t2,m2,. . .)
Required parameter. Specifies the control field information for the sort key
record defined by the SKNAME parameter. Valid entries are:
sn
ln
Control field position relative to the start of the record
Control field length
