 NAME       : ALTREC
 DESCRIPTION: ALERT RECORDING RECORD
 DSECT      : ALTREC
 FUNCTION   : ALTREC PROVIDES ERROR, SENSE, AND OTHER
              STATISTICAL DATA NEEDED FOR ERROR RECORDING
              ON A SPECIFIED CHANNEL-ATTACHED I/O DEVICE.
              ALTREC MAPS THE NON-DEVICE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
              AND SDMALT MAPS THE STORAGE DEVICE SPECIFIC
              INFORMATION.  MODULES WHICH BUILD ALERT RECORDS
              FOR STORAGE DEVICES MUST COPY BOTH THE SDMALT &
              ALTREC CONTROL BLOCKS.
 LOCATED BY : N/A
 CREATED BY : HCPDUC
 DELETED BY : HCPIOE AFTER HCPREC HAS COPIED IT INTO
              A GSDBK.
