Specifying a value data set name
The output data set name field Dsn defines the value data set. It can be any cataloged sequential, partitioned or VSAM data set containing data that is used to determine the output field value during a copy process.
If you select Scramble Type 3 ("Translate"), then the data set must contain the input and output values in the locations provided in the input and output columns.
If you select Scramble Type 1 ("Random") or 2 ("Repeatable"), then the data set must contain the output value in the locations provided in the output column.
Notes:
- This field is required when you select Scramble Type 3 ("Translate"). If you select Scramble Type 1 ("Random") or 2 ("Repeatable"), and also select the Value option, then you can optionally provide a data set name. If you leave this field blank having selected the Value option, you are prompted to enter the value list to be stored in the template.
- The value data set record length must be greater than or equal to the field length.
