Note
The CMNSVAM SSV archive master RECORDSIZE changed in ZMF 8.3. The conversion jobs create a new, empty CMNSVAM and initialize it. Reporting and recovery may be performed on backups of older archived data by restoring to a temporary archive VSAM data set defined with RECORDSIZE(3700 22576) and running the SVARCLST and SVARCREC jobs against the temporary archive VSAM data set.
