VOLSER=volser

This specifies the volume serial number, volser is a 1 to 6 byte argument.

OWNER=owner

The given owner will be included into the VOL1 owner field, owner is a 1 to 10
byte argument.

COMPRESS=n

Compression, 0 = no compression, 1 = zlib, 2 = bzip. If COMPRESS=0 is
coded then an AWS format is assumed. Default is HET format with COM-
PRESS=1 (zlib).

LEVEL=n

Specifies the level of compression (0 – 9). Default is LEVEL=1.

7.1.4 AWSGET Control Statement

The AWSGET control statement will supply values that are necessary to retrieve a dataset from an AWS
or HET virtual tape volume. Decompression is invoked automatically when required.

INDSN=dsname

This specifies the dataset name (up to 44 bytes) of a dataset stored inside of
the AWS or HET virtual tape.

OUTDD=ddname

This is the DDNAME representing the dataset to receive the data from the vir-
tual tape.

FILENO=nnnnn

Specifies the file number of the dataset inside of the AWS or HET virtual tape.
This may be a standard label file number or an absolute file number depending
on the value of the SL= keyword.

SL=value

If the value is YES then standard label numbers are present, if the value is NO
then the file numbers are absolute numbers. This keyword also impacts the
meaning of the FILENO= keyword.

7.1.5 AWSPUT Control Statement

The AWSPUT control statement causes a dataset to be copied into the AWS or HET virtual tape file.
Multiple AWSPUT statements may be specified. A set of standard labels are produced as each statement
is processed. If necessary the dataset is staged into a temporary dynamically allocated dataset prior to
insertion into the virtual tape.

The AWS or HET virtual tape output file may specify any DCB attributes that are meaningful in the users
environment:

RECFM=V

Variable length output, LRECL and BLKSIZE as specified. The records are in a
format consistent with that produced by AWSUTIL.

RECFM=F

Fixed length output, LRECL and BLKSIZE as specified. The records are in a
format consistent with that produced by the VTTS family of utilities.

RECFM=U

Undefined length output, BLKSIZE as specified. The records are written in an
aggregated BLKSIZE length block. Note: This is the preferred method when
the virtual tape is to be transported to other environments such as Hercules.
