Define Mapping Rules for Post-Ship Script Data Sets for Natural Objects

Define data set mapping rules for your processor output files that contain your scripts.

Follow these steps:

1. Specify the Host Dataset Name field masks to match the script data set name.
2. Specify the Remote Dataset Name field value using the keyword exactly as shown next: (SCRIPT-FILE)

   The parentheses, which must be included and the dash are not valid characters for a data set name, so this value cannot be mistaken for one.

Note: For more information about defining mapping rules, see Create a Mapping Rule.

Example: Mapping Rule for the NATCMD Script File

To create a mapping rule for a script data set with a final qualifier of NATCMD , define the Host Dataset Name and the Remote Dataset Name as shown next.

HOST DATASET NAME   ===> *.*.*.NATCMD  
      maps to                                        
REMOTE DATASET NAME ===> (SCRIPT-FILE)               

Note: This example creates a mapping rule for the Natural LOAD JCL created in the example shown in Update Processors for Post-Ship Script Processing of Natural Objects

Note: On the DSN Mapping Selection List, SCRIPT appears in the Status column when a script file is identified by a mapping rule.
