Example 1: The following example defines two spool partitions, PARTA and PARTB. Partition PARTB is the default partition. JES3 also writes initialization information to partition PARTB.

SPART,NAME=PARTA
SPART,NAME=PARTB,DEF=YES,INIT=YES

Example 2: This example also defines two partitions, PARTC and PARTD. Because neither SPART statement specifies DEF=YES, JES3 uses the partition defined by the first SPART statement as the default partition (PARTC). Because neither SPART statement specifies INIT=YES, JES3 writes initialization information to the default partition, PARTC.

SPART,NAME=PARTC
SPART,NAME=PARTD

Example 3: This example defines 4 partitions. PART1 is the default partition. JES3 also writes initialization information to PART1. The second partition, PART2, overflows into the third partition, PART3, which overflows into the fourth partition. PART4 overflows into the default partition, PART1.

SPART,NAME=PART1,DEF=YES,INIT=YES
SPART,NAME=PART2,OVRFL=PART3
SPART,NAME=PART3,OVRFL=PART4
SPART,NAME=PART4,OVRFL=PART1
