IDCAMS Extensions

Describes the extensions Enterprise Test Server provides to the IDCAMS command language.

Syntax:

;MFE: {keyword(value)[,...]

General Rules:

  1. Code each extension on a line by itself following the last semicolon (;) that terminates the command to which it applies. If the command does not end with a semicolon, then add a semicolon.
  2. The value of the extension keyword follows normal IDCAMS rules for use of quotes, special characters, continuations, etc.

Parameters:

keyword(value) Specify an extension keyword and value. All extension keywords must begin with the % (percent) character.

Example:

DEFINE CLUSTER(NAME(MFIDSA.RJSE.VSAMKSDS.WITH.SPECIFIC.PCNAME ) -
        TRK(1 1) -
        ;MFE:%PCDSN -
         ('"F:\MX30 JCL SYSTEM\PCFILE.VSAMKSDS.DAT"')
