HFS copy utility parameters and alternate ddnames

SMP/E for z/OS Commands
SA23-2275-01

The parameters and alternate ddnames passed to the HFS copy utility include these values:
  • The parameters include any PARM values specified in the HFSCOPY UTILITY entry, plus parameters generated by SMP/E based on either the contents of the hierarchical file system element or Java™ Archive file element entry (if one exists) or on the MCS for the element.
    The SMP/E-generated parameters include the name of the element, its installation format (TEXT or BINARY), an identifier for the resulting utility output, and any linknames associated with the element.
    Note: The maximum total length of the parameters to be passed is X'FFFF' bytes. If the length exceeds this number, SMP/E truncates the parameters at the limit and passes this value to the HFS copy utility.
  • The alternate ddnames include any PRINT values specified in the HFSCOPY UTILITY entry, the ddname of the input data set to be used by the utility, and the ddname of the output data set to be used by the utility (the SYSLIB ddname for the element).
