SYMLIST parameter

Parameter type

Keyword, optional

Purpose

Use the SYMLIST parameter to list the symbols that pass to the internal reader (INTRDR). The internal reader enables your job to submit another job for later execution. Ensure that the symbols are defined when your job is submitted to INTRDR. Symbols are either JCL symbols that are made available to the job execution phase using the EXPORT statement, or JES symbols that are dynamically created using the JES Symbol service (IAZSYMBL). The special asterisk character (*) indicates that all JCL and JES symbols that meet JCL requirements are passed to the internal reader.
Note: Start of changeThis does not include symbols that are defined by JES (such as the SYSUID symbol), unless they are explicitly exported by using the EXPORT JCL statement.End of change
