RERUN Clause

The RERUN clause specifies that checkpoint records are to be taken.

The RERUN clause is syntax checked, but is treated as documentation.

file-name-1

The name of a sequentially organized file. The file named in the RERUN clause must be a file defined in the same program as the I-O-CONTROL paragraph, even if the file is defined as GLOBAL.

assignment-name-1

This name can be any user defined word. The file named in the RERUN clause must be a file defined in the same program as the I-O-CONTROL paragraph, even if the file is defined as GLOBAL.

EVERY integer-1 RECORDS

A checkpoint record is to be written for every integer-1 record in file-name-2 that is processed.

When multiple integer-1 RECORDS phrases are specified, no two of them may specify the same file-name-2.

Integer-1 must be an unsigned integer. It specifies the number of records to be processed before the RERUN information is written.

EVERY END OF REEL/UNIT

No two multiple END OF REEL or END OF UNIT phrases can specify the same file-name-2. The definition of UNIT is determined by each assignment-name-1.

EVERY integer-2 CLOCK-UNITS

Only one RERUN clause containing the CLOCK-UNITS phrase can be specified.
