Keyword Usage

SELGRP

Set to the default CA‑Panexec group name associated with this Library Code. The SELGRP value is set by a Keyword Assignment Statement in the Retrieve Model specification of the Library Code. The $FROMDATA value can override the SELGRP value. If the From Data field is empty, this variable must be set to a group.

Note: The next three variables (SELMODE, SELSTAT, and SELTYPE) must be set to valid values or modeling errors occur.

SELMODE

Set to the CA‑Panexec Mode name associated with the from data set Library Code. The SELMODE value is set by a Keyword Assignment Statement in the Retrieve Model specification of the Library Code.

SELSTAT

Set to the CA‑Panexec Status name associated with this Library Code. The SELSTAT value is set by a Keyword Assignment Statement in the Retrieve Model specification of the Library Code.

SELTYPE

Set the SELTYPE value to the CA‑Panexec Type name associated with this Library Code. The SELTYPE value is set by a Keyword Assignment Statement in the Retrieve Model specification of the Library Code.

$MEMBERCOUNT

Set to the current Retrieve request model execution count for the purpose of generating unique JCL field names such as STEP names. The character value ranges from 0000000 through 9999999 and is incremented by one for each member.

$CHKREP

Set to the same value (Y or N) as the Replace Member field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. A value of Y indicates that the copied CA‑Panexec member can replace an existing member of the same name ($TONAME) in the TEST CA‑Panexec Library ($DEST1DSN). To accomplish this with CA‑Panexec, a User Keyword REP is set to the string ',R' when $CHKREP = Y. The REP keyword is specified in the CA Panexec Copy control statement to request member replacement. If member replacement is not allowed, the REP keyword is set to a null string.

$ORIGDSN

Set to the data set name that the member is being Retrieved from, as defined to the Library Code.

$DEST1DSN

Set to the target data set name.

$DEST1SEC

A composite of the CA‑Panexec access and override values. If $DEST1SEC is specified, the first four characters are used for the access value and the next four for the override values.

$FROMNAME

Set to the same value as the From Member field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. The $FROMNAME value is used in the CA‑Panexec COPY control statements to request the source library member.

$FROMDATA

Set to the same value as the From Data field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. If the $FROMDATA value is specified, the value is used for the CA‑Panexec GROUP name. The $FROMDATA value overrides the SELGRP value.

$TONAME

Set the $TONAME value to the same value as the To Member field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. You can modify the To Member field to rename the member. The $TONAME value is used in the CA‑Panexec COPY control statement to request the named target library member after the copy.
