Parameter Syntax

Each parameter entry consists of one or more parameters and an appropriate value for each. Parameter entries begin in column 1 and can continue through column 71.The columns with contents follow.

1-4

One of the following:

A four-character SMF system ID indicates that this line contains a parameter statement that is valid only for a particular system.
Blanks indicate that this parameter statement applies to all systems.
An asterisk (*) in column 1 indicates that any data in the remaining columns are to be treated as a comment.

5

A blank.

6-71

One or more parameters and their values. For each line in this data set, start the parameter statements in column 6. Construct the parameter entry in the following way:

Separate each parameter and its value with an equals sign (=); that is, parameter=value.
If an entry contains more than one parameter, separate them from each other with a comma.
Do not use blank spaces. CA PMO treats any data following the blank as a comment.
Make sure that each line contains a complete parameter statement. Do not continue a parameter statement from one line to the next. If you have to start a statement on a new line, always begin in column 6.

72

A blank. Each parameter statement must end with a blank space.
