PM62169: ENHANCEMENT TO SUPPORT MULTI-VOLUME ALLOCATION FOR THE STRIPE FILES

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• Allows the FPA Build Index funtion and FPA ANALYZE funtion
  to support multi-volume allocation for the stripe files.
  
  This enhancement is being implemented as a result of FITS
  requirement MR1115115316.

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  FPA INDEXBLD function and FPA ANALYZE function for FPSI have
  been enhanced to support multi-volume allocation for the stripe
  files in the SMS environment.
  When FPA dynamically allocates the stripe files, FPA internally
  sets 10 to volume count.
  This enhancement is being implemented as a result of FITS
  requirement MR1115115316.

  2.7 Analyzing a DEDB offline with FPA
  2.7.5 DD statements for the Analyze process
  
  S0nnnnn0 DD is added to Table 31. DD statements for the Analyze
  process as follows:
  
  S0nnnnn0  | Input and Output | Yes | Optional |
  
  
  The description of S0nnnnn0 DD is added to Input/Output DD
  statements as follows:
  
  | S0nnnnn0 DD
  | These DD statements are optional DD statements that define the
  | stripe files. The stripe files are intermediate work data sets
  | for storing pointer segments until the segments are loaded to
  | the secondary index databases. nnnnn is the secondary index
  | database number that FPA determines internally. The value can
  | be in the range of 00001 - 25755.
  | The size of the data set is the length of the pointer segment
  | multiplied by the number of the pointer segments.
  | This DD statement used for Secondary index database integrity
  | verification.
  | Note on dynamic allocation:
  | If this statement is not specified in the JCL statement when
  | these data sets are necessary, FPA allocates them dynamically.

  The description of S0nnnnn0 DD is changed as follows:

  | These DD statements are optional DD statements that define the
