Explanation: OUTDATASET(dsn) is
an optional parameter specifying where to send the messages generated
during RECYCLE processing. For (dsn), substitute the fully
qualified name of the data set to receive the RECYCLE messages. The
recycle command log records all data movement activity that results
from processing the RECYCLE command. Any error messages that the RECYCLE
command processor issues are also written in this log.
If the data set does not exist, DFSMShsm dynamically allocates
and catalogs an output data set with the following characteristics:
- Data set name specified (dsname)
- Record format of fixed-blocked with ANSI control characters (FBA)
- Logical record length of 121
- Data set is system reblockable
- Primary allocation of 20 tracks (see note)
- Secondary allocation of 50 tracks (see note)
- Unit of SYSALLDA. (see note)
If the data set already exists, DFSMShsm will use the data set.
The data set must have the following characteristics.
- The data set must be cataloged and on DASD.
- The data set record format must be FBA, and the logical record
length must be 121.
- The data set is system reblockable
- The user can choose the primary space allocation.
- If the data set does not contain data, DFSMShsm starts writing
output data at the beginning of the data set.
- If the data set contains data, DFSMShsm writes the output data
after the existing data.
Defaults: If OUTDATASET(dsn) is
not specified on the RECYCLE command, DFSMShsm sends all messages
generated during RECYCLE processing to the SYSOUT specified by the
SETSYS parameter.
Note: If you select the OUTDATASET option, you can use the
PATCH command to change the unit name, primary allocation, and secondary
allocation. If you select the SYSOUT option, you can use the PATCH
command to change whether, and how, DFSMShsm limits the lines of SYSOUT
output. Refer to the
z/OS DFSMShsm Implementation and Customization Guide for a list of the
available PATCH commands.
