AS400LIB Statement—Specify the Name of a Library

The AS400LIB statement specifies the name of the library that contains the Control Language (CL) program, the source file for the program, or the command that you want to run.

Supported Job Type

This statement is optional for the i5/OS job type.

Syntax

This statement has the following format:

AS400LIB library|
         /QSYS.LIB/library.LIB

library

Specifies the name of the library that contains the program, the source file for the program, or the command that you want to run. The value must be a valid i5/OS library name.

Notes:

• The entire value can be up to 46 characters; it cannot contain delimiters (such as spaces).
• Instead of using the AS400LIB statement, you can specify the library name in the CURLIB or LIBL statement.
• You can also specify the library name in the AS400FILE, CLPNAME, or COMMAND statement.
• Do not use the AS400LIB statement if the library name is already specified in the AS400FILE, CLPNAME, or COMMAND statement. If you specify the library name in both statements, you will get a submission error.
• If you do not specify the library name in the AS400FILE, CLPNAME, COMMAND, or AS400LIB statement, the agent uses the job's library list.

Example: Specify the Library that Contains the CL Program to Run

This example runs a program named MFGDATA on an i5/OS system. The MFGDATA program is contained in the library named PRODJOBS.

AGENT I5AGENT
CLPNAME MFGDATA
AS400LIB PRODJOBS
