Default
OUTDD=SYSOUT
ddname
Specifies the ddname of the file used for runtime DISPLAY output.

Change the default for this option if, at run time, you expect there could be a conflict with another product that requires SYSOUT as a ddname.

To understand how OUTDD interacts with the MSGFILE runtime option, see the description of MSGFILE in the z/OS® Language Environment® Programming Reference.
