Operands

zone

specifies the name of the input zone to be copied. This name must match the one specified on the SET BOUNDARY command.

OUTFILE

specifies the name of the DD statement that defines the output data set, which is the input for the ZONEIMPORT command.

Note:

OUTFILE can also be specified as OFILE.
Data set attributes for OUTFILE are described in the "SMP/E Data Sets" topic in SMP/E for z/OS Reference.

NOPURGE

specifies that the input zone is not to be deleted from the CSI when the ZONEEXPORT is done. This is the default.

Note: NOPURGE is mutually exclusive with PURGE.

PURGE

specifies that the input zone is to be deleted from the CSI data set when the ZONEEXPORT is done.

Note:

PURGE is not allowed for the global zone.
PURGE is mutually exclusive with NOPURGE.

INDEX

specifies that the index entry for the input zone is to be deleted from the global zone. If INDEX is not specified on the PURGE operand, only the data in the zone is deleted.

RC

changes the maximum return codes allowed for the specified commands. These return codes determine whether SMP/E can process the ZONEEXPORT command.

Before SMP/E processes the ZONEEXPORT command, it checks whether the return codes for the specified commands are less than or equal to the values specified on the RC operand. If so, SMP/E can process the ZONEEXPORT command. Otherwise, the ZONEEXPORT command fails. For more information about the RC operand, see Processing the SMP/E RC operand.

Note:

The RC operand must be the last operand specified on the command.
If you do specify the RC operand, return codes for commands not specified do not affect processing for the ZONEEXPORT command. Therefore, if you use the RC operand, you must specify every command whose return code you want SMP/E to check.
