Specifies how the USS table will be formatted.
- FORMAT=DYNAMIC
- Specifies that the MODIFY TABLE command can be used to dynamically
replace the USS table. Also, use FORMAT=DYNAMIC to permit terminal
operators to specify the USS table using the LANGTAB operand on a
USS command.
Specifying FORMAT=DYNAMIC can significantly reduce the CPU time required to search for VTAM® operator messages. See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation for more information about dynamically replacing the USS table.
FORMAT=DYNAMIC is coded in both the IBM-supplied USS tables — ISTINCNO and ISTINCDT.
- FORMAT=OLD
- Specifies that the table is not dynamically replaceable.
