Use the VSAMSTART command to tell CICS® VR to start passing AMS commands to VSAM after a VSAM sphere has been recovered.
The VSAMSTART command has no synonyms.
Consider the following when using the VSAMSTART command:
VSAMSTART DSN(TEST.PAYROLL.BASE)
BLDINDEX -
INDATASET(TEST.PAYROLL.BASE) -
OUTDATASET(TEST.PAYROLL.PATH)
VSAMEND DSN(TEST.PAYROLL.BASE)
This pair of VSAMSTART and VSAMEND commands tells CICS VR to pass the AMS BLDINDEX command to VSAM when the recovery of TEST.PAYROLL.BASE has successfully completed. The AIX® for TEST.PAYROLL.BASE is built by VSAM when CICS VR has recovered TEST.PAYROLL.BASE.
For details of the VSAMEND command, see VSAMEND: Stop passing AMS commands to VSAM.
