ClassFPARMS Setting

By Model 204 or reset by file manager

Meaning

The current status of the file

Valid settings of FISTAT are (options can be summed):

SettingMeaning file...
X'40'Might be logically inconsistent.
X'20'Is in deferred update mode.
X'10'Has been recovered.
X'08'Is full.
X'02'Is physically inconsistent.

Note: Never reset the FISTAT parameter if the file is physically inconsistent.

X'01'Is not initialized.

Note: When a file is opened, bits that are not currently defined by Rocket Software for FISTAT are reset. This bit resetting is designed to set aside these bits for features of future Model 204 releases. You cannot use the RESET command to set undefined bits. If an application makes use of any of the undefined bits of the FISTAT parameter, it might produce unexpected results.
