Parameter definition

PRINT

Requests that JES2 route the job’s sysout data sets that are printed.

PUNCH

Requests that JES2 route the job’s sysout data sets that are punched.

XEQ

Requests that JES2 route the job to a network node for execution.

ANYLOCAL

LOCAL

Indicates a local node on a local device.

name

Identifies a local or remote device or node by a symbolic name defined by the installation with the JES2 DESTID initialization statement. The name is 1 through 8 alphanumeric or national ($, #, @) characters.

Nnnnn

Identifies a node. nnnn is 1 through 4 decimal numbers from 1 through 1000. For example, N0103.

NnnRmmmm

NnnnRmmm

NnnnnRmm

Identifies a node and a remote work station connected to the node. The node number, indicated in the format by n, is 1 through 4 decimal numbers from 1 through 1000. The remote work station number, indicated in the format by m, is 1 through 4 decimal numbers from 1 through 9999. Do not code leading zeros in n or m. The maximum number of digits for n and m combined cannot exceed six.

Note: NnnR0 is equivalent to LOCAL specified at node Nn.

nodename.userid

nodename:userid

nodename/userid

nodename(userid)

Identifies a node and a VM or TSO/E userid, a remote workstation, or a symbolic name defined at the destination node. The node is a symbolic name defined by the installation during initialization; nodename is 1 through 8 alphanumeric or national ($, #, @) characters. The userid must be defined at the node; userid is 1 through 8 alphanumeric or national ($, #, @) characters.

A userid requires a node; therefore, code nodename.userid. You cannot code a userid without a nodename.

If you specify a TSO/E userid, do not specify a nodename that is the same as the origin node.

Note: If a data set is queued for transmission and an operator changes its destination, the userid portion of the routing is lost.

Rnnnn

RMnnnn

RMTnnnn

Identifies a remote terminal. nnnn is 1 through 4 decimal numbers from 1 through 9999. Note that with remote pooling, the installation may translate this route code to another route code.

If you send a job to execute at a remote node and the job has a ROUTE PRINT RMTnnnn statement, JES2 returns the output to RMTnnnn at the node of origin. For JES2 to print the output at RMTnnnn at the executing node, code DEST=NnnnRmmm on an OUTPUT JCL statement or sysout DD statement.

Note: R0 indicates any local device.

Unnnn

Identifies a local terminal with special routing. nnnn is 1 through 4 decimal numbers from 1 through 9999.

If you send a job to execute and the job has a ROUTE PRINT Unnnn statement, JES2 returns the output to Unnnn at the node of origin.

Userid

Identifies a userid at the local node.

Note: JES2 initialization statements determine whether or not the node name is required when coding a userid. See your System Programmer for information regarding how routings will be interpreted by JES2.

nodename.vmguestid

nodename:vmguestid

nodename/vmguestid

nodename(vmguestid)

Identifies the network node where the job is to execute. The nodename identifies an MVS™ JES2 system, an MVS JES3 system, a VSE POWER node, or a VM system. If nodename specifies the local node, the job executes locally. The nodename is 1 through 8 alphanumeric, national ($, #, @), or special characters specified during JES2 initialization.

The vmguestid identifies a guest system running in a virtual machine (VM), for example, an MVS system running under VM. Do not specify a work station or terminal in this parameter.
