SET-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES / SHOW-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES

Indicating whether large objects are permitted in a pubset

Existing pubsets can be upgraded to large pubsets with the SET-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES command.

The following two operands determine whether large objects are permissible:

/SET-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES ...,LARGE-VOLUMES=*UNCHANGED/*ALLOWED(
                           LARGE-FILES=*UNCHANGED/*ALLOWED)

The LARGE-VOLUMES operand determines whether the pubset may contain large volumes. The default setting *UNCHANGED specifies that the previous setting is retained. If *ALLOWED is specified, the pubset may contain large volumes. This setting cannot be undone.

The LARGE-FILES operand determines whether large files may also be created on these large volumes.
The default setting *UNCHANGED specifies the previous setting is retained.
If *ALLOWED is specified, large files may be stored. This setting cannot be undone.

Changes to the LARGE_OBJECTS attributes only take effect the next time the pubset is initialized (using the IMPORT-PUBSET command).

Outputting pubset attributes

Pubset attributes are output with the SHOW-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES command.

Example of the output of /SHOW-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES for the TST pubset

 /sh-pub-attr tst

In the S variable output of the SHOW-PUBSET-ATTRIBUTES command, these specifications are shown in the following two S variables:

• var(*LIST).LARGE-VOL

• var(*LIST).LARGE-FILE

Contents of both S variables: *NOT-ALLOW or *ALLOW.

Example of the output to the TESTOUT S variable

 /decl-var testout(type=*struct),mult-elem=*list 
 /exec-cmd cmd=(show-pub-attr work),text-output=*no,struct-output=testout
 /sh-var testout
 TESTOUT(*LIST).PUBSET = WORK 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).PUBSET-TYPE = *STANDARD 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).CONTROL-VOLSET = 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).SYS-ID = 250 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).SHARE = *YES 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).LARGE-VOL = *ALLOW 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).LARGE-FILE = *NOT-ALLOW 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).CURR-MASTER = 126 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).DESIGNATED-MASTER = 126 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).ALT-MASTER = *NONE 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).BACKUP-MASTER = 124 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).ALT-BACKUP = *BY-OPER 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).SNAPSET-LIMIT = 0 
 TESTOUT(*LIST).DEFAULT-STORAGE-TYPE = *PUBLIC-SPACE
