Table 149 DO FASTPOS Subparameters
Subparameter |
Description |
---|---|
Y (Yes) |
Use Control-M/Tape Fast Positioning. However, if the program has its own Fast Positioning mechanism, that mechanism is used and Control-M/Tape does not intervene. |
N (No) |
Do not use Control-M/Tape Fast Positioning. If the program has its own Fast Positioning mechanism, that mechanism is used and Control-M/Tape does not intervene. |
OVERRIDE |
Same as YES, but use Control-M/Tape Fast Positioning even if the program has its own Fast Positioning mechanism. However, if Control-M/Tape Fast Positioning is not appropriate (for example, you are appending to the data set) and the program has its own Fast Positioning mechanism, that mechanism is used and Control-M/Tape does not intervene. |
TEST |
Same as YES, but in addition use Control-M/Tape Fast Positioning when Control-M/Tape is running in Test mode. |
Note: Only one DO FASTPOS statement can be specified per rule.
