Creating VSAM records from a RAM model

Now that we have a model for the SAMP RAM, we can easily define SAMP RAM's CAF information. To do this, it is first necessary to understand where and how the CAF information is stored. There are two CAF key-sequenced VSAM clusters that store all of the CAF information: CRADEF and CRASTRS. As CARMA is loaded, it discovers the RAMs available to it (as well as their corresponding actions, parameters, and return values) by reading CRADEF, which contains information about the capabilities of the RAMs available. As necessary, CARMA tries to determine if a user's preferred language is available for a given RAM by checking CRASTRS, which contains locale-specific information for the RAMs.
