Statement Summary

Table 1. SYSOUT Summary
Variable Value
Required/Optional Statement Optional
Statement Default None
Placement in Initialization Stream This statement must follow the ENDJSAM statement.
Coding Considerations If STANDARD is specified for any parameters, JES3 uses the corresponding value from the OUTSERV statement.
Security Usage Use the FLASH parameter to print security classifications on 3800 printer output. Do not confuse the FLASH security classifications with RACF® security labels which can also be printed on job output. If you are using both FLASH and RACF to print security classifications, ensure that their meanings agree and that you do not overlay the security label printed by PSF.
Performance Considerations None
Initialization Stream Overrides
  1. The CARR, CHARS, FLASH, FORMS, MODIFY, STACKER, TRAIN and THRESHLD parameters on this SYSOUT statement override corresponding values on the OUTSERV and DEVICE statements.
  2. The TRKGRPS parameter on this SYSOUT statement overrides corresponding values on the CLASS and MAINPROC initialization statements and on the //*MAIN JES3 control statement.
  3. If specified, the TRUNC parameter on this SYSOUT statement overrides the corresponding value on the BUFFER initialization statement.
Restart or Command Modification
  • Warm start or cold start for all parameters.
  • The SPART parameter has a dependency on the NAME parameter of the SPART statement. During a hot start with refresh, JES3 does not process the SPART statements and uses the SPART statements from the last warm or cold start. If you add a SPART statement during a hot start with refresh, JES3 ignores it and issues error messages if the SYSOUT statement references the SPART statement you attempted to add.
