This parameter is relevant only for LOAD REPLACE SHRLEVEL NONE (where SHRLEVEL NONE is either specified or implicit by default). LOAD RESUME YES always uses a non-destructive load technique. 

BMC AMI Load

 ignores this parameter when you specify SHRLEVEL CHANGE or SHRLEVEL REFERENCE.

Use this parameter when you need to change all LOAD REPLACE jobs (that do not already use SHRLEVEL CHANGE or SHRLEVEL REFERENCE) to function as if you had specified SHRLEVEL REFERENCE.

Important

For the rules that apply to parameter syntax, see Parameter syntax rules.

A

(default) A tells BMC AMI Load to write to the source data set and not create shadow data sets.

B

B tells BMC AMI Load to create and write to shadow data sets. At the end of the load, rename or fastswitch processing takes place.

Example
+WRITETO(B)

BMC AMI Load completes the following process:

  1. Writes all data pages to shadow data sets.
  2. Performs fastswitch processing (if +FASTSWITCH is YES) or rename processing.
  3. Deletes the original data sets.
