You can specify the same SYSOUT processing options that are available through an OUTPUT JCL keyword by using one or more dynamic output text units. Each text unit provides the same SYSOUT processing options as one or more subparameters of a particular OUTPUT JCL keyword.
Alternatively, you can have a zero length pair to act as a place holder. A zero length is allowed whenever the length value pair's corresponding atomic subparameter may be specified as null. Using a length of zero indicates a null value for the length/value pair and is equivalent to having a null atomic subparameter in JCL. For example, in ADDRESS=(ZOBRE,,POK) the second subparameter is null.
