Indexes

An index file conforms to the following naming convention:

indpref.jobname.date.time.fileid

where indpref is the index file prefix.

Based on the length of the IXHPREF parameter in the CTVPARM member in the IOA.PARM library, the index file name prefix structure can be built in one of the following ways:

date is the letter C followed by the 5-character date in the julian format, YYDDD.

time is the letter T followed by 6 characters indicating the time in hhmmss format.

fileid is the file ID beginning with the letter M, followed by one digit (from 1 to 9) that indicates the number of the monitor that created the index, followed by the 3-digit sequential number of the index produced in the decollation mission.

A primary migrated index conforms to the following naming convention:

pmigxpref.jobname.date.time.fileid

where pmigxpref is the file name prefix. Based on the length of the DSNPREF parameter in the IOASPRM member in the IOA.PARM library, which should be the same as the length of the IXHPREF parameter in the CTVPARM member.

The index file name prefix structure can be built in one of the following ways:

For example, if DSNPREF=M and the original Index file prefix is ITDP.L2, pmigxpref is MITDP.L2.

For example if DSNPREF=M6 and the original Index file prefix is CTDP.I2, pmigxpref is CTDP.MI2.

A secondary migrated index conforms to the following naming convention:

smigxpref.jobname.date.time.fileid

where smigxpref is the file name prefix. Based on the length of the SECPREF parameter in the IOASPRM member in the IOA.PARM library, which should be the same as the length of the IXHPREF parameter in the CTVPARM member, the file name prefix structure can be built in one of the following ways:

For example, if SECPREF=S and the original Index file prefix is ITDP.L2, smigxpref is SITDP.L2; if SECPREF =S6 and the original Index file prefix is CTDP.I2, smigxpref is CTDP.SI2

For both primary and secondary migration, the date field has the following format:

date

When an index migrates from disk to the level 01 target media, this field remains prefixed by the letter C. This letter is replaced by the next letter in alphabetical sequence during each stage of the multistage migration or refresh.

The other qualifiers are copied from the original index name.
