VOLUPD function

• When this function is used to update the MEDIA, LOCATION, or SLOTNUM fields of the volume, the slot in which a vaulted volume resided remains in status IN USE.

  In this case, to synchronize the Slot Definition Records in the Media database, run the CTTVTM utility with the following control statement:

  TYPEVLT MODE=SLOTBLD

• A single status bit can be set in a specific status byte of a volume or data set record.

  For example, to turn on the PVLT (Potential Vault) status on a volume record, include the following statement:

  VOLUPD.....,VOLIND=+PVLT

  To turn off the above status bit include the following:

  VOLUPD.....,VOLIND=-PVLT
