Parameters

n [-m | *]
The subscript defining the offload SYSOUT receivers that are affected by this command. The subscript can specify a single numeric value n (1-8) or a range of values n-m (1-8) associating offload SYSOUT receivers with offload devices. The asterisk character (*) can be used to specify the first or last offload SYSOUT receiver in a range (n-*, for example). A comma-delimited list of values or ranges is also supported. For details about specifying a range of values for this subscript, see Command syntax conventions.
Burst=[No|Yes]
The burst specification for this device.
No
Only output that is not to be bursted can be selected, if Burst is also specified in the WS= list.
Yes
Only output that is to be bursted (page-separated) can be selected, if Burst is also specified in the WS= list.
If the burst specification is not a criterion for output selection, specify a null parameter of (Burst=) and do not specify Burst in the WS= list.
CReator=creator
Specifies the 1 through 8 character userid that creates the SYSOUT data sets to be processed. You can also specify wild cards on this parameter. See Using wildcards for additional information.

If the Forms characteristic is not a criterion for output selection, specify a null parameter of (Forms=) and do not specify Forms in the WS= list.

Hold=[No|Yes]
The Hold specification for this device.
Y
Only held post-execution jobs can be selected, if Hold is also specified in the WS= list.
N
Only non-held post-execution jobs can be selected, if Hold is also specified in the WS= list.
If both held and non-held jobs are to be loaded, specify a null parameter of (Hold=) and do not specify Hold in the WS= list.
JOBname=jobname
A 1 to 8 character jobname. If JOBname is also specified in the WS= list, only those post-execution jobs with this jobname can be selected. You can also specify wild cards on this parameter. See Using wildcards for additional information.

If jobname is not a criterion for job selection, specify a null parameter of (JOBname=) and do not specify JOBname in the WS= list.

MOD=
Specifies modifications to the indicated characteristics of post-execution jobs and output data sets that are selected for reloading. These modifications are assigned during the reload process. If more than one of the following parameters is specified, each must be separated by commas and the list must be enclosed in parentheses.
Burst=[No|Yes]
Specifies whether (Y) or not (N) reloaded output is to be burst (page-separated). A null parameter of (Burst=) specifies that the Burst specification is not to be modified.
FCB=fcb
A 1 to 4 character identifier of the forms control buffer image or carriage control tape assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of (FCB=) specifies that the FCB specification is not to be modified.
FLash|O=flash
The 1 to 4 character flash name assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of (FLash=) specifies that the Flash specification is not to be modified.
Forms=forms
The 1 to 8 character forms name assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of (Forms=) specifies that the Forms specification is not to be modified.
Hold=[No|Yes]
Specifies whether post-execution jobs are to be held (Y) or released (N) once reloaded. A null parameter of (Hold=) specifies that the Hold specification is not to be modified.
NOTify={No|Yes}
Specifies whether a notification message is sent to the TSO userid specified on the JOB statement or /*NOTIFY JECL statement. If you specify Y, a notification message is sent when a post-execution job is reloaded from the offload data set. If you specify N, no notification message is sent.
OUTDisp=[H|HOLD|K|KEEP| L|LEAVE|W|WRITE]
The disposition of the output selected by this offload SYSOUT receiver is changed to the disposition that you specify on the OUTDISP operand.
PRMode=prmode
The 1 to 8 alphanumeric character processing mode assigned to output when reloaded. You can also specify wild cards on this parameter. See Using wildcards for additional information. A null parameter of (PRMode=) specifies that the PRMode specification is not to be modified.
Queue=queue
The SYSOUT class (A-Z, 0-9) assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of (Queue=) specifies that the output class is not to be modified.
Routecde=routecde
Specifies a destination for a piece of output. When used as a subparameter of MOD=, Routecde= specifies the destination(s) for output you have selected. The value for all routing numbers can range from 1 to 32767. You can also specify wild cards on this parameter. See Using wildcards for additional information. For specification requirements, see Route codes.
Note: NODENAME=REQUIRED on the DESTDEF initialization statement will cause JES2 to require that a userid be prefixed with a node name.
LOCAL|ANYLOCAL
Indicates that jobs are to be run at the local node.
destid
Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify this location by an alias for the name of a node. If destid is specified alone, it refers to both the node and the remote.
Nnnnn|nodename
Indicates that jobs are to be run at the specified node(s). You can specify a node using the decimal node identifier or an EBCDIC nodename.
NnnnnRmmmm|node.remote|node.userid
Indicates routing to the remote Rmmmm at the node Nnnnn. Rmmmm can also be specified as RMmmmm or RMTmmmm.
Ummmm
Indicates special local routing.
node.destid
Indicates a destination at the specified node. The destid refers to both the node and the remote. The node specified in the destid must be the same as the node portion of the route code. If the number of the remote is reassigned, you can use the destid to send to this node.
remote
Indicates routing to a remote. Remote can be specified in any of the following ways:
LOCAL|ANYLOCAL
Indicates that jobs are to be run at the local node.
Rmmmm
Indicates routing to the specified remote. Rmmmm can also be specified as RMmmmm or RMTmmmm. The value specified for mmmm can range from 1 to 32767.
destid
Indicates routing to a destid referring to a remote.
userid
Indicates routing to a valid TSO userid, or a user* (where * means all local, remote, special local unit, and userid output at the specified node).
node.*
Indicates that the nodename is to be modified to the specified node name, but the remote node will remain the same.
T|UCS=ucs
A 1 to 4 character identifier of the print train or character arrangement assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of (UCS=) specifies that the UCS specification is not to be modified.
Writer=writer
A 1 to 8 character external writer name assigned to output when reloaded. A null parameter of Writer= specifies that the writer name is not to be modified.

Authority Required

This command requires system authority. The description of the $T RDRnn command explains how to ensure that the authority of the appropriate MVS™ system command group is assigned.

This command requires control security access authority. For a description of assigning command input authority, see z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide, SA32-0991.

Processing Considerations

  • If you specify a null value for a characteristic that is currently specified in the work selection (WS=) list, for example, Burst=(), you must remove that criterion from the WS= list. If you do not remove the criterion from the WS= list, this device does not select any output.
  • If you are uncertain of the characteristics in effect, enter the $D or $D U command for the particular offload SYSOUT receiver.

Scope

Single member. The values supplied for this command will be in effect for this member only.

Depending on your installation's setup, however, you might want this command to be applied to all members of the MAS (to ensure a consistent environment across the MAS). If so, you can use the MVS ROUTE *ALL command to issue this command to all active members (if the JES2 command character is the same on all members). See z/OS MVS System Commands, SA38-0666 for more information on using the ROUTE *ALL command.

Messages
