The following are the optional parameters of the ARCXTRCT macro:
- DATE
- specifies the date and time that the backup version to be extracted
was created. For dateaddr, specify the address of a data
area that contains the backup date. The field referenced by dateaddr must
contain 7 digits in the form of yyyyddd. The default value
for date is 0.
- TIME
- specifies the time that the backup version to be extracted was
created. For timeaddr, specify the address of the data area
that contains the backup time. The field referenced by timeaddr must
contain 6 digits in the form of hhmmss. The default value
for time is 0.
- SNAPDCB
- specifies the address of an open DCB that can be used for SNAP
macro processing. This feature is intended for problem determination.
If you specify this parameter, review Usage notes. For dcbaddr,
specify the address of an open DCB.
- TEST
- specifies whether to refrain from sending a request for service
to DFSMShsm.
If YES is specified the service request is not sent. If NO is specified,
a service request is sent to DFSMShsm. In both cases the parameters are
checked for correctness. A 4xx return code will result for
invalid parameters. The default is NO.
