Arguments

For file, filename of output. No default output file.

For data sets, you must preallocate the data set and specify a prefix of //. For example:

//U1.HIGHRISK.EF.OUTPUT

For PDSE data sets, you must enclose the name in single quotations. For example:

’//SYS.TEST.PDS(MEMBER1)’

When you use a DD statement in the JCL to allocate the data set, be sure to specify the DD name instead of the data set name and enclose it in quotations. For example, for a data set specified on the DD statement labeled DDDEF:

 -o '//DD:DDDEF'

See Sample JCL and code.
