VIT entries can be written formatted, unformatted or as a hexadecimal string. Here is a GBLK entry in each format:
  • Do not format (parameter syntax: NOFORMAT). Shows the 32–byte VIT entry as eight words in hexadecimal format, followed by the same 32 bytes as the EBCDIC eye-catcher. For example:
    C7C2D3D2 0C000000 06638480 06357218 823D6340 00000098 864EBCF8 00000098 *GBLK......d.....b.. ...qf+.8...q*
  • Format the VIT entries (parameter syntax FORMAT). Shows the 32–byte VIT entry with labels for each field. For example:
    GBLK          ASID 0C   RC    00       ID    00       VTA   00       AREA  06638480 ANCH  06357218
                  ISSR 823D6340            LEN   00000098 INIT  864EBCF8 RLEN  00000098
  • Create trace data set (parameter syntax TRACEFORMAT). The 24-byte GTF header followed by the 32-byte entry in hexadecimal format. This output is not suitable for printing, but is usable as input to the VIT analysis tool or other tools. For example,
    ..u..e5et....7..VTAMTST GBLK......d.....b.. ...qf+.8...q
