Sunday, June 10, 2007. One can speed up applications greatly by using memory to cut I/O when dealing with VSAM. For this VSAM Buffers can be enlarged. In the DD statement code AMP parameters = BUFNI(index), BUFND(data), BUFSP ( amount of. Increase number of Data buffers (BUFND) for sequential access. Increase number of Index buffers (BUFNI) for random access. IDCAMS Utility can't be executed without 2 DD Statements. They are SYSPRINT and SYSIN.
