CATCHUPGLVPREFIX Parameter

The CATCHUPGLVPREFIX parameter is used internally for catch-up rule processing.

Important! Unless you are already using the default stem prefix (GLOBAL1.CATCHUP.) for other variable processing, we strongly recommend that you do not modify the value of this parameter. Do not use this global variable prefix for any other purpose. Do not assign values to the prefix itself or create any other subnodes under this prefix for any other purpose. Failure to heed this warning results in abends in the AOF subtask during product initialization.

Modifying the value of CATCHUPGLVPREFIX causes all CATCHUPYES and CATCHUPMAN rules that were active during the previous iteration of CA OPS/MVS to not perform catch-up processing.

Default value

GLOBAL1.CATCHUP

Other possible values

Any prefix of the form GLOBALn.tail., where n can be either 0-9 or A-Z. However, we strongly recommend that you avoid using the characters A-Z for the value of n, as they may result in the unwanted execution of GLV rules. The value of tail may be any combination of the characters A-Z and 0-9. The maximum length of the prefix is 33 characters; the minimum is 10.
