AOFROUTE Parameter

The AOFROUTE parameter determines the default routing codes of messages generated in AOF rules.

There are actually two ways to set these routing codes, because the routing codes that you specify for AOFROUTE are the same as those specified for bytes 5 and 6 of the AOFDEST parameter value. For example, if you set a value for AOFDEST, and then set a value for AOFROUTE specifying different routing codes, the codes set by AOFROUTE override the earlier settings. The opposite is also true-if you set the AOFROUTE parameter and then later specify different routing codes through the AOFDEST parameter, the AOFDEST settings override the AOFROUTE settings.

To help you to set the AOFROUTE parameter, the following table lists this information:

• Routing codes 1 through 12
• The hexadecimal representation of each code
• The corresponding OPSBITS() character string of each code
• A description of each code

You can combine two or more hexadecimal representations in order to specify multiple routing codes. Consider these examples:

If you need more detailed information about routing codes, see the IBM documentation.

Default value

X'0000'

Other possible values

Any valid routing codes, expressed in hexadecimals

Set or modify this parameter...

Anytime

Example: AOFROUTE

This function sets the default routing codes to 9 and 11 (X'0080' + X'0020' = X'00A0').
