The Structure of VRM Variable Definitions

You can tailor the SCHENV keyword insertion for a specific run of a job by defining a VRM variable in the resource profile of the job. A VRM variable is indicated when VAR is specified as the resource type in the definition on the RM.1 panel. When VAR is specified, the FREE value is not used and is always set to N. The resource name in the definition must begin with 'SCHENV.'. This prefix signifies that the variable is used for the SCHENV insertion. The second node of the resource name designates the WLM scheduling environment that must be available for the job to run. This value must conform to IBM naming conventions for scheduling environments.
