DGADTAMS Parameters

Edit online

DGADTAMS is invoked by the RUN TASK Process statement with the following parameters that define allocation and AMS actions to execute.

Parameter	Description
sysprint output parameters	The first positional parameter is special because it defines dynamic allocation parameters for the AMS SYSPRINT output. This parameter can allocate a spool file or a user file. The FREE and RETURN subparameters are required. Note: You must specify all of the sysprint output parameters on the same line. They cannot be on separate lines. The following example defines a CLASS A SYSOUT spool file. C'FREE=CLOSE, RETURN=(DD) SYSOUT=A'
control statement parameters	You can use any valid input to the VSAM AMS program as input to DGADTAMS, even multiple input parameters defining one or more AMS actions. You must begin all VSAM control statement parameters with a blank.

Parameter

Description

sysprint output parameters

The first positional parameter is special because it defines dynamic allocation parameters for the AMS SYSPRINT output. This parameter can allocate a spool file or a user file. The FREE and RETURN subparameters are required.

Note: You must specify all of the sysprint output parameters on the same line. They cannot be on separate lines.

The following example defines a CLASS A SYSOUT spool file.

C'FREE=CLOSE, RETURN=(DD) SYSOUT=A'

control statement parameters

You can use any valid input to the VSAM AMS program as input to DGADTAMS, even multiple input parameters defining one or more AMS actions. You must begin all VSAM control statement parameters with a blank.
