PASSTHRU

Specifies whether pre-spool processing must also pass the report through to the report’s normal output specification.

When you specify PASSTHRU=YES, the report is dynamically intercepted and the report is allowed to be written to the normal output allocation. This feature provides a method for parallel testing. During the implementation of CA Deliver, the PASSTHRU=YES allows the reports to be processed normally and processed by CA Deliver. With PASSTHRU=YES, the output is written another time to the output DDNAME incurring additional CPU and I/O.

The default of PASSTHRU=NO causes the report to be dynamically intercepted and the original output DDNAME is not created.

Syntax:

PASSTHRU=xxx

Default: NO
