KSAMUTIL
Syntax
To invoke KSAMUTIL, enter:
RUN KSAMUTIL.PUB.SYS
or
KSAMUTIL
Operation
Use KSAMUTIL to manage compatibility mode KSAM files. With KSAMUTIL commands,
you can create a CM KSAM file, rename both the data and key files, save a temporary file as
a permanent file, clear all data from a file, purge a file, and verify the contents and access
history of an existing file.
KSAMUTIL runs in either session or batch mode. You can issue MPE/iX commands from
within KSAMUTIL by preceding the commands with a colon (:). There are seven KSAMUTIL
commands for creating and manipulating CM KSAM files and four commands for
displaying file information. The file information may be displayed on the terminal or
printed.
