9 Print Parameter Exit
OS/390 (MVS)
The Print Parameter Exit allows the customer to extend the -opa parameter string which is
used to pass relevant job information in the header file that is built for every job that
PP/ROUTER transmits to target router servers.
The exit is called for each output data set that PP/ROUTER processes. The returned
string, if any, is then appended to the standard
-opa parameter string in the header for the
data set.
The ROUTER server administrator may have to amend exits or scripts in order to support
additional parameters that are appended by the sending system
A Sample source exit is loaded into the sample library from the install tape – PPRTRX01.
This sample exit builds an –opa string of device_name=PRTnnnn ,outgrp_name=nn
The input buffer that is passed to the exit contains access points to the following OS/390
(MVS) control blocks:
JSPA

Refer to the sample exit for a full explanation of the INPUT/OUTPUT requirements of the
exit.
