The CASUFFIX DD statement points to a sequential data set or PDS member with record format fixed (RECFM=F), 80-byte records (LRECL=80), and any suitable blocking. This data set can contain any number of statements overriding suffixes for the CAGSPARM member to be used.
By switching the name of the data set allocated to the CASUFFIX DD statement, it is possible to specify a number of different suffixes. The proper switching of data sets might be efficiently implemented using system symbols.
One suggestion is to point the CASUFFIX DDname to a member in the options partitioned data set. Although the system symbolics inside GTS parameter library members are not supported, you could control the file where the CASUFFIX DDName points to using a system symbolic like &SYSCLONE in the started task JCL and then have one GTS parameter PDS that supports more than one system.
//CASUFFIX DD DISP=SHR,DSN=gts.parms(&SYSCLONE)
The syntax is as follows:
Format:
NAME(parm-name) SUFFIX(nn)
NAME(parm-name)
Every line overrides exactly one member using the NAME() that defines the root of a member name.
SUFFIX(nn)
The SUFFIX() keyword specifies the two-character suffix of the member to use from the CAGSPARM library, and nn are any two alphanumeric characters including the characters @, # and %.
Example: Overriding the CA GTS initialization options, the XCF connectivity options, and the LOGGER options.
NAME(GSINIT) SUFFIX(20) /*use GSINIT20 */ NAME(XCF) SUFFIX(20) /*use GSXCF20 */ NAME(LOGGER) SUFFIX(20) /*use LOGGER20 */
