     NAME       : HCPSFNDX
     DESCRIPTION: CHECKPOINT SPOOL FILE POINTERS
     DSECT      : SFNDX
     FUNCTION   : To point to the first map page (SPMBK) for each
                  spool file in the system.  The number of entries
                  in this table is determined by the size of the
                  warmstart area.  Each 4K page on the warmstart
                  cylinder allows for 1022 entries, one for each
                  possible spoolid.  If an entry contains a zero,
                  it indicates that the corresponding spoolid is
                  available for a new spool file.
     LOCATED BY : The SFNDX entries occupy contiguous pages of
                  system virtual storage. The first page of the
                  SFNDX is pointed to by SYSVSNDX in SYSCM.
     CREATED BY : The virtual pages reserved for the SFNDX
                  entries are cleared to zero when the system is
                  CLEAN started. They are reinitialized when
                  the system is WARM, FORCE, or COLD started
                  (only entries for system data files are
                  reinitialized for COLD starts).
                  During normal system processing, the SFNDX
                  entries are initialized by HCPSFSON when opening
                  a new spool file.
     DELETED BY : When a spool file is deleted, HCPSFRDR zeroes
                  out the corresponding SFNDX entry.  The storage
                  allocated for the SFNDX entries is never
                  deleted.
