Construct Destination Tables

The main coding rules to be observed when writing destination definitions are highlighted and illustrated in the following:

• A destination definition consists of a sequence of definition statements having the format parameter=parameter_value; for example, GETSESS=YES, where GETSESS is a destination parameter (that is, a parameter that can be used in a destination definition) and YES is its value.

  Note: For descriptions of the destination parameters, see the following sections in the chapter “Configuration Parameters”:

  • Destination Parameters for Single LUs and Groups of LUs
  • List Destination Parameters
  • User Destination Parameters
• Each definition statement must start in the first column of the PDS member and contain no blanks. The first blank signals the end of the statement.
• A destination definition can include comments. The comments must be preceded by an asterisk (*). A comment can start in the first column of the table or it can follow a definition statement on the same line (provided there is at least one blank between the definition statement and the comment).
