Utility control statements for the Reload function

The utility control statements for the Reload function define the user description of the GLOBAL command, the RELOAD command, and the optional ALLOCATE, LOADCTL, REPORT, and THRESHOLD subcommands, all of which control the Reload process.

The utility control statements must be specified in the HFPSYSIN data set. This control statement data set usually resides in the input stream. However, it can also be defined as a sequential data set or as a member of a partitioned data set. It must contain 80-byte, fixed-length records. Block size, if coded, must be a multiple of 80.

The following figure shows a sample of how to code the HFPSYSIN data set.
