Job card information fields

The installation job card information fields specify the job statements for all the installation jobs. The sample application job card information fields specify the job statements for all the sample application jobs.

Acceptable values: see below
Default: none
Update: option 52 on panel DSNTIPB
DSNZPxxx: none

Specify the job name in one of two ways:

  • If the job name is member, the job name for each job is the same as its member name.
  • If the job name is any value other than member, the name is truncated to seven characters, and one character is added to the end of the name to identify the run order for that job.

An example of job card information follows:

 3====> //MEMBER JOB,                                       
 4====> // MSGLEVEL=(1,1),MSGCLASS=H,REGION=2M,CLASS=A     
 5====> // USER=SYSADM,PASSWORD=SYSADM,NOTIFY=SYSADM         
 6====>                                                      
                                                             

If you use the installation SYSOPR authority for Db2 installation or migration, you must set the USER parameter in the job card for installation jobs to a primary or secondary authorization ID with the installation SYSOPR authority.
