The Compare Level ID command compares level IDs for one, generic, or
*ALL files in one library to another. An escape message is optional
if differences exist. CMPLVLID may be helpful for situations such as
when a file in a production library must match the same file in the
test library.
A typical command would be:
CMPLVLID FROMFILE(LIBA/*ALL) TOFILE(LIBB/*FROMFILE)
All files in LIBA would be compared to the corresponding files in
LIBB to determine if the level IDs were the same. A summary spooled
file would be produced, but would be deleted if no differences
occurred. The listing would be retained if any differences exist.
Differences could be:
** The level IDs differ.
** The corresponding file does not exist.
** Error when retrieving from the file.
If an escape message is desired for any differences, specify
ESCAPE(*YES).
When generic or *ALL files are requested, there is no check made to
determine if a file in the To file does not have a corresponding file
in the From file.
CMPLVLID escape messages you can monitor for
--------------------------------------------
TAA9895 Differences exist (Optional)
Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.
Command parameters *CMD
------------------
FROMFILE The qualified name of the From file to be compared.
A single file, a generic file name, or *ALL may be
specified.
The library value defaults to *LIBL. *CURLIB or a
specific library may be named.
A specific library must be named if *ALL or a
generic name is used.
TOFILE The qualified name of the To file to be compared.
The default is *FROMFILE meaning the value from the
FROMFILE parameter. *FROMFILE must be used if the
From file is *ALL or a generic name.
The library value defaults to *LIBL. *CURLIB or a
specific library may be named.
A specific library must be named if *FROMFILE is
used and the FROMFILE is *ALL or a generic name.
ESCAPE A *YES/*NO value for whether to send an escape
message if differences exist.
*NO is the default meaning the completion message
will describe whether differences exist.
*YES may be specified to cause the TAA9895 escape
message to be sent if differences exist.
DLTSPLF A *YES/*NO value for whether to delete the spooled
file if no differences exist.
*YES is the default to delete the spooled file if no
differences exist. The spooled file will be
retained if differences do exist.
*NO is the default to retain the spooled file in all
cases.
