Configuring and Writing REXX › Understanding the Global Variable Environment › Naming GLV Variables

Naming GLV Variables

Follow these guidelines when naming a GLV variable:

• The name cannot contain more than 32 characters.
• The name must be a valid REXX variable name.
• The following characters are valid: A-Z  0-9 . ! ? _  "
• GLV variable names cannot start with a period (.) or a digit (0 through 9).  
• Use only uppercase alphabetic characters. Lowercase characters in a variable name are automatically converted to uppercase. (Lowercase characters do not generate errors.)
• Do not use the name of a CA Automation Point environmental variable in the AXC group.
