UIE JCL parameters

Most of the UIE JCL parameters are created automatically by the front end.

You might need to change some of the parameters. Using the Parameters panel, you can view and change parameters for:

  • Job cards
  • Dynamic allocation of temporary data sets

A job card can contain any valid JCL JOB parameter including accounting information, region size for UIE, job and output classes, and so on. There is no separate REGION parameter in the generated JCL. The region size that is specified in the JOB card defines the amount of memory below the 16MB line that is available for the entire UIE job. If no region size is specified, the default region size of JES is used.

Important

The recommended region size for Universal Information Exchange is 128M. This memory is used mostly for access method buffers. By default, UIE uses the optimal access method buffer size (which depending on the DASD type can be approximately 25K to 28K). If you need to decrease below the 16 MB line region size requirements, you can decrease the number of buffers of your temporary files by using the DA command. for more information about the DA command, see DA.
