Previous Topic: Build JCL MemberNext Topic: Example A: Target Name Provided as In-stream Data


Provide the Name of the Target Definition

Provide the name of the target definition that has the properties against which you want to process. For example, you want to build executables for IEFAE/COBOL/BYPASS. There is a DD name TARGET provided in the JCL that must not be modified (//TARGET cannot be changed to //TAR). However, you must either provide a data set name that contains the target definition name or indicate the target name in-stream just below the TARGET DD name. The DCB information for the REMOTES data set is FB (fixed block) and LRECL (logical record length) 80.

Note: The Target Definition used for the Background Utility must be already created. For more information, see the chapter "Defining the Target Configuration."
