OUTPUT Statement Restrictions

The OUTPUT statement OUTDISP keyword has limited effect: In an APPC scheduling environment, SYSOUT data sets are treated as spin data sets. The system will process only the normal output disposition. If you code an abnormal output disposition, the system will check it for syntax and ignore it. If you code OUTDISP for either output disposition, it must be syntactically correct to avoid a JCL error.
The following OUTPUT statement keywords have different default and override values in an APPC scheduling environment.
- ADDRESS
- BUILDING
- DEPT
- NAME
- ROOM
See z/OS MVS JCL Reference for specific defaults and overrides.
