The following rules apply to the creation of a DASD volume entry
in the VATLSTxx member:
- Each record consists of 80 columns, although columns 22 through
80 are ignored.
- The fields are column-dependent, as shown in Statements/parameters for VATLSTxx (except for the VATDEF statement).
- There are only two required fields: the volume serial number
and the device types. All other fields have defaults.
- Use a comma to separate adjacent fields, except before the optional
information field.
- Specify all characters in EBCDIC.
- Lines that begin with an asterisk in column 1 are comments.
Statements/parameters for VATLSTxx includes a graphic description
of all fields in the record and their lengths.
The following sections describe how to specify DASD volume entries.
