Specifying jobcards and other operational defaults
In customization tasks that involve data set allocations, you must specify the volume serial ID (VOLSER) and UNIT name.
In other tasks, you must supply the high-level qualifier (hlq) for the product libraries.
To prepare for these tasks, make a record of the VOLSER and UNIT name for the product libraries, along with the following information:
Prompt | Description |
|---|---|
Prefix ===> | High-level qualifier for product libraries |
Unit-T ===> | Generic UNIT name for temporary data sets |
Unit-P ===> | Generic UNIT name for permanent data sets |
VOLSER ===> | VOLSER for permanent data sets |
SYSID ===> | System image ID (not to exceed eight characters) |
The SYSID value is used to build names for data sets that cannot be shared across multiple systems. In all cases where hlq is referenced, this value is the prefix value for the product libraries and the SYSID value.
