Hitachi MK-96RD647-01 manual Support Matrix for VSE OS, VSE Parameter and Record Format, Key

When you use MTO and OTM for the dataset allocated by VSE2.3, you must specify RF (Record Format), RL(Record Length) and BL(Block Length) by using the correct VSE parameters.

When you use MTO and OTM for the dataset allocated by VSE2.5, FX can transfer data without a VSE parameter.

Table 3-2 Support Matrix for VSE OS, VSE Parameter and Record Format

Key:

o: Transfer is available

×: Transfer is not available

F: Fixed non-block length

FB: Fixed block length

V: Variable non-block length

VB: Variable block length

Note 1: It is possible to transfer data between correct dataset

attribute(5≦RL≦BL-4). The data transfer is valid only if the VSE parameters are as shown:

RL≦32756

BL≦32760

BL=RL+4

For the following dataset attributes, the data transfer is invalid if user does not specify the VSE parameter value as shown above.

RL＞32756

BL＞32760

For the following dataset attributes, the data transfer is invalid if user does not specify the VSE parameter value between RL and BL values shown in #1 and #2.

RL≦32756

BL≦32760

RL=BL
