INDEX: Processing a MCBR record entry using the MCB record key

z/OS DFSMShsm Diagnosis
GC52-1387-00

Explanation: INDEX allows the FIXCDS DISPLAY, VERIFY, and PATCH of an entry in a MCBR record without having to generate the MCBR key. Specify Z as the record type, and the original data set name (which is also the MCB key) as the key on the FIXCDS command. Indicate the MCBR record that is to be processed with the INDEX parameter. Specify index number 1 to process the most recent MCBR record, index 2 to process the second most recent MCBR record, and so on. Any value from 1 to 65535 can be specified, as there can be multiple MCBR records associated with a single data set and each MCBR record contains up to 100 entries.

Abbreviations: None.

Defaults: The default value of INDEX is 1.

Note: You cannot specify the INDEX keyword with the CREATE keyword. Specify the hex MCBR key on the FIXCDS command when using the CREATE keyword.
