The acronym "FCT" refers to the "File Control Table." It is necessary for the file control table to have entries for each and every kind of VSAM file that is used by the CICS applications. The FCP stands for "film control programme" and is mostly a reference to the FCT. The FCT includes the following fields: ACCMETH, which stands for "data access method," DATASET, which stands for "dataset name," FILE, which stands for "file name," SERVEQ, which stands for "operation needs to be performed on," FILESTAT, which stands for "file initial status," BUFND, which stands for "number of data numbers," and BUFNI, which stands for "number of index buffers."
