SET In rare circumstances, it may happen that when a program
is executed, the amount of storage available is less than the
current DOSPART. Then, only the amount of storage available is
obtained; no message is issued. OFF --specifies that you no longer want to control your virtual
machine partition size. When the DOSPART setting is OFF, CMS computes the partition size whenever a program is executed.
1. If you issue the SET command specifying an invalid function and the
implied CP function is in effect, you may receive message DMKCFC003E. 2. If an invalid SET command function is specified from an EIEC and
the implied CP function is in effect, then the return code is
-0003.
None. To determine or verify the setting of a function, use the QUERY command.

SORT SORT Use the SORT command to read fixed-length records from a input file,
arrange them in ascending EBCDIC order according to specified sort
fields, and create a new file containing the sorted records. The format
of the SORT command is:
r------ SORT fileid1
fileid2
fileidl fileid2
is the file identifier (filename, filetype, filemode) of the
file containing the records to be sorted.
is the file identifier (filename, filetype, filemode) of the
new output file to contain the sorted records.
The and output files must not have the same file identifiers,
since SORT cannot write the sorted output back into the space occupied by the input file. If a file with the same name as the output file
already exists, an error message is issued and the SORT operation does
not take place. Sort Control Fields: After the SORT command is entered, eMS responds wIth message on the terminal: DMSSRT604R SORT FIELDS: You should respond by entering one or more pairs of numbers of the form
"xx yy" separated by one or more blanks. Each "xx" is the starting
character position of a sort field within each input record and "yy" is
the ending character position. The leftmost pair of numbers denotes the
major sort field. The number of sort fields is limited to the number of
fields you can enter on one line. The records can be sorted on up to a
total of 253 positions. fo± The sorting operation takes
place with two passes of the input file. The first pass creates an
ordered pointer table in virtual storage. The second pass uses the
pointer table to read the input file in a random manner and write the
output file. Therefore, the size of storage and the size and number of
sort fields are the limiting factors in determining the number of
records that can be sorted at anyone time. An estimate of the maximum
number of records that can be sorted is: NUCSIZE r , 1 VMSIZE - 256K I 1---------------1 + 172K , 256K I L VMSIZE - NUCSIZE NR ----------------
