Examples of the REFORMAT command

The following examples show different ways to code the REFORMAT command in offline and online mode (MVS), and for the VSE and CMS versions of ICKDSF.

Any values specified here are examples only and should not necessarily be interpreted as the values for your system.

To reformat a volume in the CMS or Stand-Alone version:

1. Eliminate the MVS JCL.
2. Substitute the UNITADDRESS parameter for the DDNAME parameter.
3. Specify the DEVICETYPE parameter if the MIMIC(EMU) or MIMIC(MINI) parameter is also specified.
4. Substitute SYSIN for dname in the IPLDD parameter.
