GLOBAL

Use the GLOBAL command to establish implicit job step keyword values.

The implicit keyword values set with the GLOBAL command are in effect unless overridden. To override an implicitly set keyword value for a particular command, specify the keyword explicitly with the command.

You can specify the GLOBAL command in the PFPSYSIN DD input stream or from the GLOBAL module from the PFPDFLTS DD statement. If specified for the PFPSYSIN DD input stream, GLOBAL must be the first command in the input stream.

Notes

  • You can specify multiple GLOBAL commands in the PFPSYSIN DD input stream; however, they must precede all other commands.
  • If both PFPDFLTS and PFPSYSIN GLOBAL commands are specified in the JCL, then a keyword specified in the input stream for PFPSYSIN DD GLOBAL command will override the same keyword specified in the GLOBAL module for the PFPDFLTS DD statement.

Use

GLOBAL is an optional command for the PFPSYSIN DD statement or the GLOBAL module from the PFPDFLTS DD statement.
