Label data comparison with DFSMSrmm data

z/OS DFSMSrmm Implementation and Customization Guide
SC23-6874-00

Table 1 shows the comparison between label data and DFSMSrmm data.
Table 1. Label data comparison with DFSMSrmm data
Label ID Position Name EDG6679I heading SL AL RMM Extract Field Name
n/a n/a Label type LBL Y Y RVLABEL
VOL1 5 Volume Serial number volser Y Y RVVOLSER or RVVOL1 for duplicate volumes
HDR1 5 Data set identifier Dsname Y Y RVDSN1
HDR1 28 Volume sequence number Vseq Y Y RVVOLSEQ
HDR1 32 Data set sequence number Dseq Y Y RVLABNO1
HDR1 42 Creation Date Format: cyyddd, century 0=20 Crdate Y Y RDCRDATE
HDR2 SL(5, 37, 39) AL(5) Record format RECF Y Y1 RDRECFM
HDR2 6 Block length2 BLKSZ Y Y RDBLKSZ
HDR2 11 Record length LRECL Y Y RDLRECL
HDR2 18 Job identification Jobname Y Y1 RDCRTJBN
HDR2 27 Job step identification Step Y Y1 RDSTEPNM
HDR2 71 Large Block Length3 BLKSZ Y N RDBLKSZ
Note: Values for volume sequence number in HDR1 and DFSMSrmm data may be different. Volume sequence number in HDR1 indicates the order of the volume within the multivolume aggregate (set of volume serial numbers for one multivolume dataset), whereas the volume sequence number in DFSMSrmm indicates the sequence number of a volume in a multivolume set.
1 For AL tapes, these fields can only be fully compared to DFSMSrmm recorded information when the system code in the first header label is IBMZLA.
