Using ICKDSF INIT and REFORMAT VERIFYOFFLINE
VERIFYOFFLINE is a parameter for the ICKDSF INIT or REFORMAT command running on IBM® z/OS® hosts. When you execute the ICKDSF INIT or REFORMAT command with the VERIFYOFFLINE parameter, the INIT or REFORMAT command cannot be executed if the target volume is online by another system. To execute this command, first execute the VARY OFFLINE command from the system that is using the target volume, and then execute the INIT or REFORMAT command. For details about ICKDSF INIT and REFORMAT VERIFYOFFLINE, see the IBM® documentation.
