The key for a type R backup cycle volume record when it is used with the REFRESH parameter is BVR. An example of the key used with an R backup cycle volume record to be refreshed is:

FIXCDS R BVR REFRESH(ON)

For any other FIXCDS command, the key for a type R backup cycle volume record is the constant BVR followed by two characters representing the type of record (01–31 for daily, SP for spill, and UN for unassigned), a dash (-), and a four-character sequence number. An example of the key that is used with an R backup cycle volume record for day 1 of the backup cycle is:

FIXCDS R BVR01-0000
