tickets.The &PARM Symbolic
The CAISDI/els Interface Controller supports a special symbolic parameter that is named &PARM. You can embed this parameter in any control statement or comment. See the following example:
//ENABLE JOB '1234','Systems',CLASS=A //CASDIELS EXEC PGM=CSDECNTL,PARM='ca-1' //STEPLIB DD DSN=CAI.CAW0LIB,DISP=SHR //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //REPORT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * ENABLE PRODUCT=&PARM
The PARM= value in the JCL EXEC statement sets the &PARM symbolic value to “
CA 1
”. The control statement “ENABLE PRODUCT=&PARM” is interpreted as “ENABLE PRODUCT=CA 1
”. z/OS allows up to 100 characters to be passed through the PARM= parameter. Internally, the length of the control statement, including the substitution of the &PARM value, cannot exceed 200 characters.Syntax Notes
The command statements have the following syntax conventions:
- Insert comments in command statements by specifying an asterisk (*) in column 1 of the statement, followed by the comment. See the following example:*The following statement suppresses the password.
- Enclose all values in single or double quotes.
- Add comments on a command line following one blank space to the right of the parameter value. See the following example:usd_id="ServiceDesk", This is the Service Desk ID
- Separate the parameters in command statements by commas.
- Use a plus sign (+) at the end of a command line to continue the command on the next line. See the following example:defaults usd_id='Service'+ 'Desk'
- You can enter all commands (define, default, and so on) and their parameters (for example, product= or prodname=) in any case.The parser forces the following parameter values to upper case when it evaluates them:
- EVENT
- EVENTLIB
- LANG
- MASK
- PRIORITY
- PRODCNTL
- PRODUCT
- TRACE
- USD_AUTODEF
The PRODUCT and LANG values are forced to upper case inboththe command stream and from the product control member.
The parser processes all other parameter values in mixed case. For the following parameters, the mixed case is crucial:
- AFFECTED_END_USER
- ASSET
- ASSIGNEE
- REPORTED_BY
- TEMPLATE
- URL_URL
- USD_ID
- USD_PW
