Relationship to other control statements

The OUTLIM parameter of the DD statement controls the number of logical records in the sysout data set defined by that DD statement. If the sysout limit defined on the PAGES parameter is exceeded before the limit defined on OUTLIM, the system will take the action defined on PAGES. If the sysout limit defined on the OUTLIM parameter is exceeded before the limit defined on PAGES, the system exits to the sysout limit exit routine.
