OUTLIM

This initialization parameter is used to set the maximum number of lines that can be reprinted in an online or batch environment.

Note: Some VTAM and CA Spool device definitions can have a maximum line specification or have used the VPRTMAXO and/or the CMAMAX initialization parameter to specify a default maximum line limit.

Any non-zero value is used in place of the on-line OUTLIM value. If the device specification value is not specified, the OUTLIM on-line value is used.

Syntax:

OUTLIM=online,batch

Zero is the default if not specified.

Online

A number between 0 and 16777000. Online reprints that exceed this number have their output truncated and appended with the message:

SARGET01 ** Maximum lines exceeded specified limits **

Users defined as MASTER users in the online DEF USER screen or with the SARBCH DEFUSER function are permitted to print reports that exceed the OUTLIM value; be aware that these users are not automatically assigned the Y for MASTER in their user profile—the Y must be set with the DEF USER command or the SARBCH/DEFUSER function.

Note: Zero indicates no online reprint line limit.

Batch

An optional parameter that specifies that any lines in excess of the number (nnn) in a SYSOUT group are deleted without archival.

If left blank, the lines in excess of nnn are passed to the user exit SARSTCUX for processing.
