After you specify a control data set and member
on the Tivoli Advanced Allocation Management Primary
Option Menu,
or after you display a list of control data set members, you can check
the syntax of RULEDEFS, VGRPDEFS, and VARDEFS control data set members.
About this task
Note: You cannot syntax-check OPTIONS members.
Procedure
- To syntax-check the selected member, type S on
the Options line. To syntax-check a member
from a list of members, type S next to the
member that you want to check.
The ISPF BROWSE function
is invoked to view the results returned by syntax check routine.
- Optional: If you want to retain the resulting
output or prefer to use a data set name of your own choosing, specify
the name of a listing data set in the Listing Data Set field.
The specified data set must be fully qualified, without quotation
marks.
If the data set you specify does not exist,
it is created. If the data set you specify exists, the contents are
overwritten.
Note: By default, the results of the syntax check
are saved in a temporary file named user_id.stcname.SYNTAX.
- Specify an output mode: V (view) or B (browse).
Results
Advanced Allocation Management checks
the selected control data set member for syntax errors and then invokes
the ISPF BROWSE or VIEW function so that you can review the results
of the syntax check. If no errors are detected, the message NO
SYNTAX ERRORS FOUND is displayed at the end of the report.
