Concatenating Files

To view the document file on a workstation using Viewer, you must concatenate the
index object file and the resource file to the document file.

OS/390 or MVS JCL

The following is an example of OS/390 or MVS JCL you can use to perform the
concatenation:

//PRINT EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=ᑍ
//SYSIN

DD DUMMY

//SYSUT1

DD DSN=APKACIF.INDEX,DISP=SHR

//

DD DSN=APKACIF.RESLIB,DISP=SHR

//

DD DSN=APKACIF.OUTPUT,DISP=SHR

//SYSUT2

DD DSN=NEW.PRINT.OBJECT,DISP=(NEW,CATLG),

//

UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(3276 ,nnn),

//

DCB=(LRECL=32756,BLKSIZE=3276 ,RECFM=VBM)

Where

nnn is equal to the size of the index object file, plus the size of the resource

file, plus the size of the document file.

Note: The resource file must have been created by specifying RESFILE= SEQ.

VM CMS Commands

The following is an example of the VM CMS commands you can use to perform the
concatenation:

COPY APKACIF INDEX A APKACIF RESLIB A APKACIF OUTPUT A APKACIF LIST382 A (APPEND
