Tachyon Update Utility - Control Statements

IEBUPDTE control statements are documented in the IBM DFSMSdfp Utilities manual. The manual also has many examples of IEBUPDTE usage. This guide shows the IEBUPDTE control statements and parameters supported by the Tachyon Update Utility but does not include the details about each parameter which are already provided in the DFSMS/MVS Utilities manual.

Control statements have four fields:

  1. The first two characters must be "./" to identify the statement as a control statement.
  2. Column 3 of the control statement must contain either a blank or the first character of the label field. If a label is present, it must be followed by one or more blanks. The label field is not used by IEBUPDTE or the Tachyon Update Utility.
  3. The operation identifier follows the label field.
  4. The parameter field (if any) follows the operation identifier and one or more blanks.
