Follow the rules in
General syntax rules for the creation of members. The following rules
also apply to the creation of CEAPRMxx parmlib members:
- If a statement that has a default is omitted, the default is used.
- Enter data only in columns 1 through 71. The system ignores data
in columns 72 through 80.
- You can enter one or more statements on a line, or use several
lines for one statement.
- Use blanks as delimiters. The system interprets multiple blanks
as a single blank. You can use blanks between parameters and values.
For example, both of the following parameter specifications are equally
valid:
SNAPSHOT (Y)
SNAPSHOT(Y)
- Comments may appear in columns 1-71 and must begin with "/*" and
end with "*/".
- Enter values in uppercase, lowercase, or mixed case. The system
converts input to uppercase, except for values enclosed in single
quotation marks, which are processed without altering the case.
- Enclose values in single quotation marks, using the following
rules
- Two single quotation marks next to each other on the same line
are processed as a single quotation mark. For example, the system
interprets John''s file as John's file.
- If you enter a single quotation mark in column 71, and another
in column 1 of the next line, the system does not treat these two
quotation marks as one single quotation mark, as above. Instead, the
system interprets this input as quotation marks from two separate
strings or as an error.
- When you specify multiple CEAPRMxx parmlib members using concatenation,
the system will apply the values in the order in which they are specified.
That means that when there are duplicate parameters specified, the
last value specified is the one that the system applies.
- When CEA is restarted, it will attempt to determine
and use parmlib options that were in effect when it terminated. If
it fails, the CEA IPL parmlib concatenation will be used.
Note: When you specify CEA=(xx) in IEASYSxx,
do not specify a suffix of "NO".
