Set Up the Batch Job for VTAM Modeling Statement Support

The SYSIN DD for this feature points to VTAMLST member that contains the TPX models. The Batch component analyzes the statements contained in the SYSIN file and produces the SYSUT2 output DD containing all the APPL statements generated by the combination of CA TPX control statements and VTAM models. The SYSUT2 output is read from the file pointed to by the VTAMLST DD during TPX initialization.

The data set read in as the SYSIN DD must have all of the normal *TPX type control statements (see the section Customizing the APTPX Member of the chapter "Special Features and Customization Tasks" in the Programming Guide) in addition to the *TPX,MDL statements used for modeling expansion.

Important! This feature requires the VNODE parameter be set to *MODEL* rather than *BATCH*.
