ILOG

Use the ILOG parameter to define one or more ILOG files. These can be specified in any order, but there must be one ILOG statement per ILOG file.

Syntax

Use this format for the ILOG parameter:

ILOG FILE file SUBFILE subfile DSN dsname [PAGES pages]
 
  [[SYSNAME sysname] [SSNAME ssid] [SMFID smfid]

Arguments

The ILOG parameter takes these arguments.

Argument

Description

FILE

Indicates that an ILOG file definition follows. Specify one FILE occurrence for each ILOG subfile required.

File

File number to identify the collection of subfiles that comprise the ILOG. Specify a value from 0 to 99 (inclusive).

Subfile

Subfile number, unique within the ILOG. CA‑GSS will rotate among all subfiles within an ILOG, filling each in its turn. Specify a value from 0 to 9 (inclusive).

Dsname

Name of a VSAM linear data set, for the exclusive use of this CA‑GSS address space, that will be used to contain the ILOG subfile. This file must be large enough to contain the entire ILOG subfile.

Common errors include specification of a non-linear data set and invalid SHAREOPTIONS.

Pages

Number of 4K pages to be allocated to the subfile. This value must be 5 or greater.

Default: 5

Sysname

If this parameter is present, its value will be compared with the z/OS system name and, if it does not match, the ILOG parameter will be ignored.

Ssid

If this parameter is present, its value will be compared with the value already specified by the SSNAME initialization parameter and, if it does not match, the ILOG parameter will be ignored.

Smfid

If this parameter is present, its value will be compared with the z/OS SMF ID and, if it does not match, the ILOG parameter will be ignored.
