Rules for Job Name Translation Control Statements

Keep these rules in mind when you specify job name translation control statements:

• Code each control statement as one card image in columns 1‑71.
• Continuations are not allowed.
• Separate the two parameters that compose the control statement with one or more blanks or commas.
• The data set attributes must be sequential (DSORG=PS).

  You can optionally use a member of a partitioned data set by referencing the member name on the DD statement for RMOJTAB.

  Note: A partitioned data set with a member name allows you to update the job name translation table while the started task has the job name translation table allocated.

• Specify the RMOJTAB data set attributes as follows:

  RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=xxxx
  

  Set the block size to an amount that optimizes the space allocation for the DASD type at your site.
