Creating EQAOPTS load module

If you have chosen to use the EQAOPTS load module to specify your EQAOPTS commands, do the following steps:

  1. Copy the EQAOPTS1 member from the hlq.SEQASAMP library to a private library.
  2. Edit this copy of EQAOPTS and code the EQAOPTS command or commands you want. To this minimum source, add each EQAXOPT option you want to include. The following example describes the minimum assembler source required to generate the EQAOPTS load module:
    EQAOPTS  CSECT ,
    EQAOPTS  AMODE 31
    EQAOPTS  RMODE ANY
             Add your customized EQAXOPT statements here.  For example:
             EQAXOPT MDBG,YES
             EQAXOPT NODISPLAY,QUITDEBUG
             EQAXOPT NAMES,EXCLUDE,LOADMOD,USERMOD1
             EQAXOPT NAMES,EXCLUDE,LOADMOD,USERMOD7
             EQAXOPT END
             END ,
  3. Follow the directions in the EQAOPTS sample to generate a new EQAOPTS load module. These directions describe how to assemble the source and link-edit the generated object into a load module named EQAOPTS.
  4. Place the EQAOPTS load module in a private data set that is in the load module search path and appears before hlq.SEQAMOD.
