For detailed information about using the SYSDISC data set in LOADPLUS, see SYSDISC-data-set-in-LOADPLUS.

If you use this command option to override the default name in the installation options module, you must also change the ddname in your JCL.

DSNUTILB load jobs

When invoking DSNUTILB, LOADPLUS uses this option only to pass a value for the &DDNAME variable for the data set name pattern. LOADPLUS includes this information in the TEMPLATE control statement that it builds for the IBM DB2 LOAD utility.

Specifying the default

You can specify the default for the DISCARDDN command option in your installation options module by using the DISCDDN installation option. LOADPLUS was shipped with a default value of SYSDISC for this option. The command option overrides the default that is in the installation options module.
