OUTPUT syntax options

This section describes the options that you can specify in an OUTPUT statement.

They are listed in the order shown in the syntax diagram.

Options specific to disk data sets and those specific to tape data sets are mutually exclusive: you cannot specify both disk copy data sets and tape copy data sets in the same OUTPUT statement. If you want to specify both disk and tape copy data sets in the same SYSIN data set and want to override default output descriptor values in both cases, you must use one OUTPUT statement for the disk data sets and another for the tape data sets. Also, the names of the descriptors must be different.

OUTPUT name

Specify the OUTPUT keyword to introduce a new output descriptor name. BMC AMI Copy creates the named descriptor and overrides the existing default values for the options specified in the OUTPUT statement. The value for name must not exceed 8 characters and must follow the rules for DD names.
