SMPPTFIN

ddname: SMPPTFIN.
This ddname can refer to an actual data set or to a file on a tape (such as file 1 on an ESO tape).
Use: The SMPPTFIN data set contains SYSMODs and ++ASSIGN statements to be processed by the RECEIVE command.
Attributes: Sequential; LRECL=80, BLKSIZE=multiple of 80, RECFM=FB.
Device: Card, tape, direct access, or terminal.

Note:

BLKSIZE must not exceed 32760.
If the SMPPTFIN data set is inline, you must make sure that the combination of characters used for the delimiter does not occur in the input itself.
For example, if DD * is specified for SYSIN and the SMPPTFIN data set contains the characters $$, then $$ cannot be used as the default delimiter for the input or for the delimiter specified on the DLM parameter. (The output of SMP/E service routine GIMDTS contains the characters $$.)
If you want to receive from multiple product tapes, you cannot concatenate them on a single SMPPTFIN DD statement. Instead, you must process each tape in a separate step, using separate SMPPTFIN DD statements.
Refer to the documentation supplied with the tape for exact information about how to code the SMPPTFIN DD statement. For example, with a product tape, the program directory contains this information.
This data set may reside in a UNIX file system. Specify PATHOPTS(ORDONLY) and either FILEDATA=TEXT or FILEDATA=BINARY on the DD statement if it is to reside in a UNIX file system. For simplicity, FILEDATA=TEXT is preferred, and ensure the newline character (X'15') marks the end of each line. If you use FILEDATA=BINARY, you must ensure that each line is padded with blanks to the 80-byte record length because there is no end of record marker in binary data.
