Version differences - VERSION=0/1/2/3/4/5

The following table shows which operands/operand values are supported with VERSION=5/4/3/2/1/0.

• With VERSION=5, all operands/operand values supported in version BS2000 OSD/BC V11.0A and higher can be used.

• In VERSION=4 all operands/operand values can be used which are supported in BS2000/OSD-BC V9.0A and higher.

• All operands and operand values that were supported up to and including BS2000/OSD-BC V8.0A may be used with VERSION=3.

• All operands and operand values that were supported up to and including BS2000/OSD V2.0A may be used in the macro format with VERSION=2.

• All operands and operand values that were supported from BS2000 V8.0A to V10.0A may be used in the macro format with VERSION=1.

• All operands/operand values that were supported in BS2000 Versions < V8.0A can be used in the format with VERSION=0.

Table 8: FSTAT - Version differences

Key

x	The operand is available in the macro version.
(x)	The operand is not available in the macro version under the specified name, but the same function can be executed by an operand of some other name.
-	The operand is not available in the macro version.

Vers

Version

VERSION=710 corresponds to VERSION=0 VERSION=800 corresponds to VERSION=1

Note

The positional operand pathname is indicated before the alphabetically sorted keyword operands.

¹⁾ The format for the CRDATE, EXDATE and LADATE operands in macro version 1 is as follows:

CRDATE / EXDATE / LADATE = NONE / date / (date[,]) /
                                (,date) / (date1,date2)

²⁾ The format for the BASACL operand in macro version 1 is as follows.

,BASACL=NONE / 
           YES([,OWNER=NO-ACCESS / access-list] / 
               [,GROUP=NO-ACCESS / access-list] / 
               [,OTHERS=NO-ACCESS / access-list])

³⁾ Representation of positional operands in Vers=0 and Vers=1:

Vers=0:

[pathname],outaddr[,length][, SHORT / LONG

Vers=1:

[pathname] / ([pathname,length1)]
  ,outaddr / (S,outaddr) / (r1)
  ,length2 / (r2)[,SHORT / FNAM / LONG]
