How You Turn Off Processing Options for Data Sets

Many EDIF processing options are specified as values on the OPTION parameter. You can use the EDIF merge process to turn off any processing option specified using the OPTION parameter. To turn off a certain processing option, specify the prefix NO in front of that option on the appropriate statement. To negate all processing options, specify OPTION(NONE) instead.

For example, to detect and prevent attribute changes for partitioned data sets, you would specify OPTION(ABEND,ATTRIBUTES) on a DSORG statement. To detect changes for the MY.DATA data set without preventing these changes, you then would specify OPTION(NOABEND) on a DATASET statement for this data set.
