BUILDKEYRECORDS
BUILDKEYRECORDS
Generates the alternate-key records for specified key fields of a structured disk file and
writes those records to a designated file. This command applies only to Enscribe files.
Although the output of BUILDKEYRECORDS can be the actual destination alternate-
key file, it is more efficient to use a LOADALTFILE command to load alternate-keys.
You can use BUILDKEYRECORDS to generate the alternate-key records, store them
in another file, and then load them into the destination alternate-key file with a LOAD
command. This approach is useful when limited system resources prevent a
LOADALTFILE operation.
primary-filename
names an existing primary file whose alternate-key records are to be generated.
You must have previously defined alternate-key fields for the primary file. You
cannot use wild-card characters or specify qualified-fileset for
primary-filename.
out-filename
names an existing file where the alternate-key records generated by this command
are to be written. out-filename can be an existing disk file, a nondisk device, a
process, a tape or SPOOLER (code 129) file, or a spool DEFINE name. You
cannot use wild-card characters or specify qualified-fileset for
out-filename.
