AUTOVOL variables for skeleton tailoring
When skeleton JCL is submitted, the ACT_JOB keyword in the AUTOVOL function uses these variables. Other functions create a slightly different set of variables.
AUTOVOL variables for skeleton tailoring
Variable | Description |
|---|---|
&DEVT | Specifies the device type of the volume. This value is an eight-character alphanumeric entry, for example 3390-A34. |
&FUNC | Specifies the AUTO function that is causing the job submission (in this case AUTOVOL) |
&GROUP | Specifies the resource (depending on which resource was used) |
&GRPTYPE | Specifies a value of POOL, STORGRP, or SUBPOOL, and indicates the type of group name that is specified in the &GROUP parameter |
&JOB | Replaced by the name of the BBSLIB member containing the skeleton JCL used in this request |
&SMFID | Specifies the SMF ID of the system submitting the job. This value is up to 4 characters in length. |
&SOL | Specifies a solution that is causing the job submission. For more information, see SOLUTION parameter. |
&SYSID | Specifies the system ID of the system submitting the job. This value is also known as the system name. The value is taken from the CVTSNAME field of the CVT and is up to 8 characters in length. |
&VAR1 through &VAR9 | Specifies the values defined on the SET statement in the AUTO function RLST. The SET statement can set these variables to any text string. In this way, the SET statement, and the inherent selection parameters, can pass data to the skeleton JCL. This variable is used in the distributed SRMJOB10 member in BBSLIB. |
&VOLSER | Specifies the volume serial numbers generated by the AUTOVOL function that should be included in the skeleton JCL |
