CKPTID= parameter for procedures
Use the CKPTID= parameter in procedures to specify the checkpoint at which the program is to be restarted.
You can set the CKPTID= parameter using the DFSOPT DD statement in IMS-supplied procedures. The syntax for the CKPTID= parameter is:
CKPTID=char str (No
default)
For more information, see DFSOPT DD in DD statements for IMS procedures.
Enclose the checkpoint ID in single quotation marks if it contains any non-ANSI characters, such as the slash.
If the checkpoint ID contains any non-ANSI characters, such as a forward slash, enclose it in single quotation marks if passed in PARM=() or parentheses if passed in DFSOPT.
For more information about specifying values for CKPTID, see XRST call.
You can suppress message DFS681I or DFS0540I each time a checkpoint call is made:
- To suppress message DFS681I, code
NOMSG681. - To suppress message DFS0540I, code
NOMSG540. - To suppress both messages, code
NOMSGS. - To suppress DFS681I and DFS0542I, code
