Description |
|---|---|
| VOLID(serial) | Writes a new volume serial number in the volume
or minidisk label. For serial, substitute 1 to 6 alphanumeric characters for the volume serial number. If fewer than six characters are specified, the serial is left-justified, and the remainder of the field is padded with blanks (X'40'). |
| Default: | When you reformat a volume or minidisk and do not specify the VOLID parameter, the old volume serial number remains unchanged. |
| Restrictions: | Any catalog that identifies the volume by its volume serial number must be changed to reflect the new volume serial number for any cataloged data sets that reside on the reformatted volume. |
