Operation

Use KSAMUTIL to manage compatibility mode KSAM files. With KSAMUTIL commands, you can create a CM KSAM file, rename both the data and key files, save a temporary file as a permanent file, clear all data from a file, purge a file, and verify the contents and access history of an existing file.

KSAMUTIL runs in either session or batch mode. You can issue MPE/iX commands from within KSAMUTIL by preceding the commands with a colon (:). There are seven KSAMUTIL commands for creating and manipulating CM KSAM files and four commands for displaying file information. The file information may be displayed on the terminal or printed.
