  • Release of VSE KWIK-LOAD. VSE users will now be able to load the VSAM base cluster and build an alternate index at the same time.
  • Ability to build multiple alternate index datasets with one pass of the base cluster. KWIK-KEY will build up to nine (9) alternate index or cross reference datasets while reading the base cluster records only once. KWIK-LOAD will also build up to nine (9) alternate index or cross reference datasets while loading the VSAM base cluster.
  • Ability to limit the number of base cluster records associated with one alternate key. The new MAXDUP parameter allows users to eliminate excess base cluster keys for an alternate key.
  • Performance optimization suggestions. A new section has been added to the reference manual with suggestions to improve the performance of KWIK-KEY and KWIK-LOAD by fine tuning sort features and VSAM dataset options.
  • Improved documentation. Separate sections for MVS and VSE control statement formats.
