Indexing AFP with ACIF

[jsquizz]

I have used ACIF to index AFP's with TLEs, to do line data, etc.

I have a sample AFP file that indexes using NOPS ( Redacted anything i could..)

How do I go about defining the triggers for this type of file with Nops, since the AFP is a binary file. do I need to run arsafpd against it somehow?

My colleague does this mostly, but she copies existing and does the modification there. I want to know how to do this for my own referencem, since her reasoning of "This is how we have always done it" isnt flying :)

TRG is my trigger

On Z/OS we run APKACIF before the CMOD archive step.  Not sure if that is what you are looking for.
