Chapter 3. DSN Catalog Management Utility 3-19
CLOSE
BIM-EPIC only accesses active versions of a dataset. Datasets that are in “open” or
“conditionally cataloged” status cannot be processed, and they become eligible for scratch
differently from active versions. To access or save an open or conditionally cataloged dataset,
you must close it with the CLOSE command.
CLOSE only changes the DSN Catalog status of a version. It does not perform close
processing, such as writing tape or disk labels.
If an Automated Cartridge Library (ACL) is supported, CLOSE sets the tape volume to “non–
scratch” status in the ACL inventory.
