External Writer Name

An external writer is an MVS routine that directs SYSOUT (system output) to magnetic tape devices and data sets and other devices that are not supported by the Job Entry Subsystem (JES).

An external writer name is the name assigned to the process associated with the allocation of job entry subsystem data sets. This process makes the job entry subsystem data sets available for processing by the external writer.
