COMPAKTOR Options

The options on this panel apply only to COMPAKTOR (program FDRCPK).

Important

COMPAKTOR is also affected by some of the security options (panel A.I.4.1) and some of the FDR general options (panel A.I.4.2) described in preceding sections.

If you are not licensed for COMPAKTOR, you may skip this panel.

ACTMESS

If set to “YES” during a COMPAKTion from a backup (COMPAKT TYPE=COMPAKT), if any other tasks have the volume allocated COMPAKTOR issues message FDRW81 to warn the operator. You can suppress the message for all COMPAKTOR jobs by changing the option to “NO”. You override it at run time.

ACTMESS does not apply for FAST COMPAKTion (COMPAKT TYPE=FCPK) or RELEASE (COMPAKT TYPE=RLSE).

Default: YES

CPKCC

If an error occurs during execution of COMPAKTOR that is not severe enough to cause immediate termination, it completes processing of the current volume (and any other requested volumes) and then issues an abend or sets a return code to call attention to the error. The default “ABEND” causes an abend U0888 at step termination. If you wish a return code instead of the abend, change CPKCC to any desired value from 8 to 255. However, if CPKCC is set to “ABEND” but FDRCC in General-Options is set to a return code, COMPAKTOR uses the FDRCC return code.

Default: ABEND

CPKABSUN

If set to “NO”, COMPAKTOR treats data sets that are allocated by absolute track allocation (SPACE=(ABSTRK,…)) as movable. If you want COMPAKTOR to treat them as unmovable and always leave them in their current locations, change this option to “YES”.

HILIGHT

If set to “YES”, COMPAKTOR highlights certain data on its volume maps in order to make it stand out by overprinting the line three times. On most laser printers, the overprint is not noticeable, and when viewed on TSO terminals usually results in displaying the line three times. Overprinting can be suppressed by changing this option to “NO”. This can be overridden at run time.

Default: YES

NOSECOND

The COMPAKTOR function of releasing excess space may be limited to data sets that have a secondary allocation value; this allows you to exclude data sets that have only primary allocation defined, and are unable to acquire secondary extents if they need to re-expand. If set to “YES”, secondary allocation is not considered when releasing space. If set to “NO”, COMPAKTOR does not release space from data sets with no secondary allocation. You can override it at run time.

Tip

NOSECOND be set to “NO”.

SIZEKEEP

The SIZEKEEP operand of COMPAKTOR, explained in SIZEKEEP= in COMPAKT-and-SIMULATE-Statements and Effect of the SIZEKEEP Option in COMPAKTOR-Reorganization, has three sub-operands. The default values for those sub-operands are specified by the options SIZEKEEP, FREEAREA, and MAXKEEP respectively. You can change the defaults for any or all of these values. You can override them at run time with the SIZEKEEP operand on the COMPAKT statement.

Default: (100,90,60)
