Software Reference Manual - NetEx

BFXRVM opens the VSAM file and determines its characteristics in order to update the file by the following
steps.
1. LOAD new records if the data set is empty.
2. INSERT incoming record if a new key value
or
3. UPDATE the record if the key previously exists.
The user can control INSERT or UPDATE processing times with the following optional execution parameters.
RPARM='OPT=SEQ' (Use Sequential Process.)
RPARM='OPT=SKP' (Use Skip Sequential Process.)
RPARM='OPT=DIR' (Use Direct Process - default.)
To invoke BFXRVM in the BFX execution parameters, see the following example.
Receive .... RMODULE=BFXRVM, RPARM='OPT=SEQ'
Upon completion of the file transfer, BFXRVM will issue the following statistics message.
MSG350I BFXRVM-Records Recv=nnnnnnn,Load=nnnnnnn,Updt=nnnnnnn,lsrt=nnnnnnn,Errors=nn
The statistics have the following meanings.
Recv Number of records received.
Load Number of records loaded in the file.
Updt Number of records updated in the file.
Isrt Number of records inserted in the file.
Errors Number of logical file errors encountered (maximum of 16).
Note: If logical file error(s) occur, message(s) will be issued to the system log reporting the FDBK value for
the keyed record.
BFXSVM
BFXSVM is the sending VSAM module. This record module reads records from an existing VSAM cluster
and sends them to the remote BFX. The optional execution parameters are as follows:
RPARM='GEN=kkkk....k' (Send all generic keys = kkkk...)
RPARM='KEQ=kkkk....k' (Send specific Keyed record.)
RPARM='KGE=kkkk....k' (Send all keys >= kkkk...)
(No RPARM parameter transfers the entire cluster.)
To invoke BFXSVM in the BFX execution parameters, see the following example.
SEND .... RMODULE=BFXSVM, RPARM=’GEN=ABC’
