Control statements (JCL and control statements)

This section describes the control statement syntax, the CAPSYSIN data set syntax, and identifies and describes the control statements.

Format

The format of control statements in the CAPSYSIN data set follows the format of IDCAMS and TSO statements. A control statement begins with a command, followed by required and optional keywords.

CAPSYSIN DD statement

On the CAPSYSIN DD statement, use an asterisk if control statements immediately follow. If a data set contains the control statements, use the data set name.

//CAPSYSIN DD *          or
//CAPSYSIN DD DSN=datasetname,DISP=SHR

Include the control statement and keywords. The control statements and allowable keywords for each are discussed in this section. Detailed information on all keywords is in CAPSYSIN-keywords.

Comments

If necessary, you can also include comments on a control statement.Comments consist of an alphanumeric character string beginning with a slash asterisk (/*) and ending with an asterisk slash (*/). The Change Accumulation utility assumes a comment has ended if it reaches the end of the statement before it encounters the asterisk slash (*/) and if the last character in the statement is not a continuation character. Do not place the comment start characters (/*) in column 1.
