INCLUDE/EXCLUDE Control Statements—Filtering SYSIDs

Filtering SYSIDs

By default, the unload utility puts a value corresponding to the z/OS system ID in the FILTERSYSID parameter and this value is used to compare to SYSIDs that are found on permits and facilities. If the sysid and the filtersysid values match, processing of that record continues. If the sysid and filtersysid values do not match, that record is ignored and a message is written out to the exception report. To override the default value, specify the desired value with the FILTERSYSID control statement.

Note: Only one FILTERSYSID control statement can be specified in the SYSIN file. The FILTERSYSID keyword cannot be abbreviated.

FILTERSYSID(filtersysid_value)

filtersysid_value

(Optional) Specifies the character value substituted in the FILTERSYSID parameter to compare to sysid in the permit and facility records.
