VSAM Control Files
Control and data files sometimes contain output from router show commands; such output is explained in this book. It is essential to understand this output, because should the output of a show command change, it could affect the way data is processed.
When describing a record, or giving an example, a "+" is used at the end of a line to indicate that the next line is a continuation of the record.
This chapter describes the following control files:
- ISM System Initialization Control File Format
- ISM Operator Profile Control File Format
- ISM System Rules Control File Format
- ISM Resource Control File Format
- ISM Interface Control File Format
- CMCC Control File Format
- Scheduler Control File Format
