System or JDL level
A system or JDL command set establishes installation-dependent requirements and default
values for job descriptor entries. At the system level, JDL may be used interchangeably with
SYSTEM. At the system level, commands are specified which apply to all job descriptor en-
tries (JDEs) identified within a job source library (JSL). Each SYSTEM command results in
the creation of a JDL when compiled.
The SYSTEM command has the form:
jdl-name is a 1 to 6 character alphanumeric identifier specifying the name of the JDL to be
created. It must contain at least one alphabetic character.
For example:
This command identifies the start of a SYSTEM command and the beginning of a JDL. The
jdl-name SAMPL corresponds to the name of the JDL to be used when printing a job. When
DFAULT is coded for the jdl-name, the specification of a JDL parameter option in the
START command is not necessary.
Catalog level
The catalog level allows the coding of commands common to several JDEs. A catalog can
then be referenced in an INCLUDE command in each JDE. A catalog command level is
identified by the CATALOG command and ends with the appearance of another CATALOG
command or a JOB command. CATALOG commands may contain the same commands
which appear in the JOB command.
The CATALOG command has the form:
cat-name is a 1 to 6 character alphanumeric identifier of which at least one character must
be alphabetic. The cat-name is referenced by JDEs after the CATALOG command set has
been defined.
For example:
In this command, ONLINE is the catalog level identifier to be used in the INCLUDE param-
eter of a JOB command.
jdl-name :{SYSTEM|JDL;}
SAMPL: SYSTEM;
cat-name : CATALOG;
