AGE

Specifies the number of days of history records that are retained when a purge procedure is executed.

1 to 999: Indicates the number of days of history records to be retained when executing a purge.

Notes:

After XCOMUTIL has been run, the history file comprises the current date's records plus nnn days of records. For example, if the current Julian date is 12300 and AGE=1 is specified, then XCOMUTIL purges any history records written on or before 12298. Only the current and previous day's history records are saved.
Use the AGE parameter if you intend to run XCOMUTIL on a periodic basis. It allows you to set up a procedure in which a specific date does not have to be continually modified.
This parameter is mutually exclusive with the DATE parameter.
This parameter applies only to metatransfers that are initiated on a z/OS system.
