Specifying what you want to print
To print records from a disk, you must specify the range of tracks that you want to print.
- Specify the beginning of the range, in one of the following
ways:
- The beginning address in the form cylhd, where the last two digits represent the head and the other digits represent the cylinder
- A track
number, in the form
Rnnnnnn - An asterisk (*), which means the beginning of the data set
- Specify the end of the range, in
one of the following ways:
- The end address in the form cylhd
- A track number, in the form
Rnnnnnn - A number of tracks, in the form
Nnnnnnn - An asterisk (*), which means the end of the data set
Depending on the value of the CYLHD entry field of the Set Processing Options, you specify either the absolute disk location or the relative location within the data set.
If a defective track with an assigned alternate track is encountered, File Manager processes the contents of the alternate track.
When
you print records from a disk, you can specify any of the following
dump types:
- KD
- Prints the key fields (if any) and data fields. This is the default.
- CKD
- Prints the home address and record 0 fields, followed by the count, key and data fields.
- KEY
- Prints only the key field and not the data portion of each record
- CNT
- Prints only the home address and count fields and not the key field and data portion of each record
