Using the LOCATION keyword

The optional LOCATION keyword is available for use on many commands. You can use it to identify, in eight bytes or less, the physical destination of the selected data. The value (location_name8) is a free-form format and has no RUV-internal use.

It is recommended that, if you use this keyword, you establish a standard convention for managing off-site data files.

If you omit this keyword, the location field for the selected data is blank.

Note

The LOCATION keyword can be used as a reporting filter in batch or TSO processing.
