DEALLOCATE Command

Function

     The DEALLOCATE command removes a volume set from your job's  list
     of  allocated  resources.   DEALLOCATE  implies a DISMOUNT of the
     specified resource.  The logical  name  for  the  volume  set  is
     cleared,  and  you  will  not be able to use that logical-name to
     refer to the volume set.

Format

     DEALLOCATE resource-name,resource-name...

     Where:    For disk volume sets, the resource-name is  the  volume
               set-name or the structure name.

               For tape volume sets, the resource-name is the  logical
               name.

     DEALLOCATE has one switch:

     /HELP     Prints a short description  of  the  command.   If  you
               specify an argument with this switch, the argument will
               be ignored.

Associated Commands

     ALLOCATE         Informs the system of your  future  need  for  a
                      resource.

     MOUNT            Requests ownership of a resource.

     DISMOUNT         Removes the  resource  from  your  job's  search
                      list.  Dismounts the volume set from the unit if
                      no other users are accessing the resource.

     SHOW ALLOCATION  Prints  a  list  of  the  resources   that   are
                      allocated and mounted for your job.

     SHOW QUEUE       Prints a list of the jobs in the system queues.

Example

     The following example shows the use of the ALLOCATE,  DEALLOCATE,
     MOUNT, DISMOUNT, and SHOW ALLOCATION commands.  The resources are
     reserved for a multivolume tape  volume  set  with  the  ALLOCATE
     command.  The name of the volume set is TAPE-SET, and it contains
     three volumes.  The logical name TS is assigned to the tape  set.
     The tape is write enabled, and it does not have standard labels.

     .ALLOCATE TAPE-SET(VOL1,VOL2,VOL3):TS/WRITE-ENABLE/LABEL:NONE<RET>
     [ALLOCATE REQUEST TS QUEUED, REQUESTS #672]

     A file structure named DSKR: is mounted for the job:

     .MOUNT DSKR:<RET>
     [MOUNT REQUEST DSKR QUEUED, REQUEST #673]
     [STRUCTURE DSKR MOUNTED]

     The job's resources are shown using the SHOW ALLOCATION command:

     .SHOW ALLOCATION<RET>

     TAPE-SET              VOL3               MAGTAPE VOL.  1    0

     The tape set is mounted, and the resources are again displayed:

     .MOUNT TS<RET>
     [MOUNT REQUEST TS QUEUED, REQUEST #673]
     [MAGTAPE TS MOUNTED]

     .SHOW ALLOCATION<RET>

     TAPE-SET              VOL3               MAGTAPE VOL.  1    0

     After work  is  finished  by  accessing  the  tape  set  and  the
     structure,  the  structure  is dismounted.  Because the structure
     was not explicitly allocated, it is automatically deallocated.

     .DISMOUNT  DSKR<RET>
     [STRUCTURE DSKR DISMOUNTED]

     The tape volume set is dismounted:

     .DISMOUNT TS<RET>
     [VOLUME SET TS DISMOUNTED]

     The job's resources are displayed:

     .SHOW ALLOCATION<RET>

     ALLOCATION FOR JOB 59 MARY MAROTTA [27,5434]

     DSKC                  DSKC               STRUCTURE     1    1
     TAPE-SET              VOL1               MAGTAPE VOL.  1    0
     TAPE-SET              VOL2               MAGTAPE VOL.  1    0
     TAPE-SET              VOL3               MAGTAPE VOL.  1    0

     At this point, the tape set can again be mounted, or  it  can  be
     deallocated.  The tape set is deallocated:

     .DEALLOCATE TS<RET>
     [VOLUME SET TS HAS BEEN DEALLOCATED]

     .SHOW ALLOCATION<RET>
