DICTIONARY

Valid for

Extract, Replicat

Description

Use DICTIONARY to establish an Enscribe DDL dictionary to use for evaluating WHERE, FILTER, and COLMAP clauses for FILE entries. For example, DICTIONARY $DATA5.PRODDICT specifies a physical subvolume.

Each DICTIONARY entry closes any previously open dictionary. This means only one is active at any given time while processing startup parameters. For this reason, you must specify your DICTIONARY parameter before the FILE/MAP entry that uses it.

Syntax

DICTIONARY dictionary_subvol

dictionary_subvol: A physical subvolume or an existing define name of class catalog.
