Print Options panel (PSPOPRT)
When you specify YES on the Sorted Change List panel for a
print of the checklists, the Print Options panel is
displayed. This panel allows you to override the default
parameters specified in PSP Options for this process. You
can also cancel the print request from this panel.
Data Entry Instructions
Default values are specified through the Browse/Print Options
process of PSP Options for each of the three PSP Online
processes that provide facilities for printing product
changes. The default values displayed on this panel depend
upon the process from which the print request was issued.
Print individual PC text or consolidated checklist -
Required. TEXT or CKLIST.
Specify TEXT (may be abbreviated as T) to print the
individual product change description, installation
checklist, and associated installation JCL for each
product change you have selected.
Specify CKLIST (may be abbreviated as C) to print a
consolidated installation checklist for all of the
product changes you have selected. The consolidated
checklist is generated by combining individual
checklists, delivered with each product change.
Redundant and duplicate steps found across checklists
are removed during the consolidation process.
Use composite UNITGEN in consolidated checklist - Required,
if Print parameter is CKLIST, ignored if Print parameter
is TEXT. YES or NO.
Specify Y (YES) to generate a consolidated checklist for
the selected product changes using the composite UNITGEN
process for unit-level JCL and parameter generation.
Note: This item may be locked until an active
maintenance process is finished by completing a previous
checklist.
Specify N (NO) to generate a consolidated checklist for
the selected product changes using the individual CA
MICS generation jobs (for example, cccPGEN, JCLGENC,
CYCLEGEN, GDGSGEN) for unit-level JCL and parameter
generation.
This parameter is valid only when you specify CKLIST
for the Print parameter above.
Note: If you get an error message because this item is
locked, complete the active composite UNITGEN process
before trying again. There is also a forced unlock
option available in the PSP Utilities panel, option 4.
We do not recommend that you use this option unless it
is impossible to complete the active composite UNITGEN
process.
Print summary of changed libraries/members - YES or NO.
Specify Y (YES) to print a summary of the changed
libraries or members.
This parameter is valid only when you specify CKLIST
for the Print parameter above.
Print product change appendix - YES or NO.
Specify Y (YES) to print the product change appendix
with details about data element changes, if there are
any, in the consolidated checklist.
This parameter is valid only when you specify CKLIST
for the Print parameter above.
Print data set name - Required if a consolidated checklist
has not been requested; ignored if individual
checklists are being printed. Defaults to
userid.MICS.USER.PSPn.LIST, where userid is your TSO
logon-ID and n is a sequential number to keep the data
set name unique. If you enter a data set name or a name
has been retrieved from your profile, it must be the name
of an existing data set. The selected product change
information will be written to this data set. A batch
job will be generated to print the contents of this data
set, then delete the data set.
DASD Volume serial - Optional. Defaults to the last value
specified for this parameter. 6 character VOL=SER name.
The print data set will be allocated (if new) using this
volume specification. This parameter is NOT validated;
however, allocation will fail if you specify an invalid
value. This parameter should match the volume
specification normally used to allocate TSO user data
sets at your data center.
DASD Unit name - Optional. Defaults to the last value
specified for this parameter. 1-8 character DASD unit
name. The print data set will be allocated using this
unit specification. This parameter should match the unit
specification normally used to allocate TSO user data
sets at your data center. This parameter is NOT
validated; however, allocation will fail if an invalid
value is specified.
Block size - Required. Defaults to the last value specified
for this parameter. Number between 141 and 32760. This
is the block size (that is, BLKSIZE = parameter) for the
print data set.
Edit JCL - Required. Defaults to the last value specified
for this parameter. Specify YES (may be abbreviated as
Y) to display the print job stream using the PDF EDIT
service prior to executing this job stream. This
provides the opportunity to alter or cancel the print job
stream. Specify NO (may be abbreviated as N) to bypass
the generated batch job stream display.
Number of copies - Required. Defaults to the last value
specified for this parameter. 1-99. This is the number
of copies of the product change information to be
printed.
SYSOUT class - Required. Defaults to the last value
specified for this parameter, A-Z, 0-9, or *. This is
the SYSOUT class for printing the product change
information. Normal SYSOUT options can be specified to
handle special forms (that is, SYSOUT=(*,,GB66)).
Job statement - Required. Data entry fields are provided for
four lines of job statement information. This job
statement precedes the generated JCL statements to print
the product change information.
Primary/Line Command Considerations
CANCEL - The CANCEL command exits from this process without
printing the selected product change information. The
product change print request will be erased and CANNOT be
recovered without re-marking the product changes (that
is, using the P line command or PRT primary command).
END - The END command writes the product change information
to the print data set and then generates the batch job to
print and delete the data set. If you specify YES
following the Edit Print JCL => prompt, the generated
print job stream is displayed using the PDF EDIT service.
