FDRABRP VTOC Report

PRINT VTOC statement

The report generated by the PRINT VTOC statement provides current information about existing data sets taken from the VTOCs of specific volumes, including: data set name, DASD volume serial, last ABR cycle, volume sequence number, last reference date, special ABR indicators, data set attributes and allocation information. The SUMPFX option allows summarization by high-level index.

PRINT VTOC statement syntax

nnn

If the summary report is printed, AGE= specifies the number of days (1 to 999) since a data set has been referenced as used by the aging summary for the VTOC report.

Default: 30.

nnn

If the summary report is printed, AGEINC= specifies the number of days (1 to 999) added to the value to derive the next control break in the aging summary for the VTOC Report. The summary report displays four aging breaks.

Default: 30.

Specifies that the report is produced in data set/volume serial number sequence, merging the various DASD volumes into one combined report.

Default: Each volume processed has its own separate report.

Results in ONLY a track utilization and data set aging summary to be printed. The SUM=YES option must also be active otherwise no reports are output. The reporting of DSCB information related to each data set is bypassed.

A complete detailed report is printed.

Default: DETAIL=YES.

Only data sets or clusters with a name matching one of the names given are selected (1-44 characters). Multiple values are specified in parentheses separated by commas.

Only data sets or clusters beginning with one of the prefixes given are selected (1 to 44 characters). Multiple values are specified in parentheses separated by commas.

There is a special form of the DSG operand. Leading periods “.” after DSG= indicate that the group name starts after one or more index levels. Each period indicates that one index level is to be bypassed.

Example: DSG=..TST selects any data set with a third index level starting with “TST”.

Produces a 79 character line formatted for a TSO terminal.

Produces a 121 character line formatted for a printer.

Default: CRT if executing under TSO; PRT otherwise.

nn

Specifies the maximum number of lines each report page can contain, from 28 to 99 inclusive.

Default: 58.

Causes all online DASD volumes to be included in the report.

Default: If neither ONLINE nor VOL/VOLG is specified, the default is that only DASD volumes pointed to by DISKxxxx DD Statements are included.

Specifies that a condition code of 12 is not set if there are no data sets that match the selection criteria on this PRINT command.

Specifies that a condition code of 12 is set if there are no data sets that match the selection criteria on this PRINT command.

Default: YES.

Suppresses the track utilization and data set aging summary. Only the information from the DSCBs for the data sets on the volumes selected are printed. You must insure that the DETAIL=YES option is active.

Print the track utilization and data set aging summary along with the information from the DSCBs for the data sets on the volumes selected.

Default: YES.

Specifies that the report on ABRSUM summarize by high-level data set index.

Also produce AGING information for the higher data sets by index level.

Produces only a report by index level.

Only volumes matching the specified volume serial “VOL=” or volume serial prefix “VOLG=” are selected. Multiple values are specified in parentheses separated by commas.

The FDRABRP program has been functionally stabilized, but is still available; however, this report can be produced with FDREPORT and enhanced with all the features available in FDREPORT and the flexibility to modify the reports as desired. This is the JCL and control statements to produce the equivalent FDREPORT for FDRABRP “PRINT VTOC,VOL=IDPLB2” report.

This FDREPORT example can be found in the JCL library installed with FDR. The member name is EX5307A.
