IOCP command – general usage notes

This topic lists some general notes to keep in mind when you use the IOCP command. Some aspects of using the command, though, vary with the operating system on which you run IOCP. For usage notes specific to your operating system, see the topics that immediately follow this topic.
Notes:
  1. Some IOCP command options cancel other IOCP command options. For this reason, when you code the IOCP command, do not combine IOCDS generation options with configuration report options. (However, IOCP allows multiple configuration-report options.)

    If you inadvertently code conflicting options in the same IOCP command, IOCP uses the last entered of those conflicting options; no warning message is sent.

  2. The write option WRTAx, is incorrect if the data set that you want to replace is write-protected. (To remove write protection, click Disable Write Protection under Options on the Input/Output Configuration window of the Support Element.)
  3. The TERMINAL and WARNING options are not active if you provide your own SYSPRINT FILEDEF command.
