Outside the Domain of a Locate Record
The control unit is oriented to a count or key area when the command starts (as the
result of the preceding search command). It then writes the following data area.
The data area length is defined in the data length (DL) field. If the channel sends
fewer than (DL) bytes, binary zeros fill the remaining bytes of the data area. If the
channel sends more data than the (DL) length, the control unit only writes the
number of bytes specified in the (DL) field.
Chaining and Restrictions:
Unit check status with the sense data containing
command reject with format 0, message 2 will occur if:
This command is not preceded by a Search ID Equal command that compares
equal on all ID field bytes, or by a Search Key Equal command that compares
equal on all key area bytes.
The file mask does not permit update write operations (bits 0 and 1 are ‘01’).
If the record to update has a data area length of zero, no data transfer occurs. The
command is terminated with channel end, device end, and unit exception status.
Ending Status:
Channel end is presented when the data transfer to the cache is
complete. Device end is presented when the write operation is complete at the
logical volume. When the command completes, the control unit is oriented to the
data area of the record just updated.
