PRINT Operand

You can redirect output for a specific job to:

A terminal
A data set

To redirect the held output from the jobs associated with a specific job name to your terminal, issue the OUTPUT command and specify:

The job name
The PRINT operand with an asterisk (*) enclosed in parentheses

If you do not specify either a data set name or an asterisk, an asterisk is the default. PRINT is the default value if you omit the PRINT, DELETE, NEWCLASS, DEST, HOLD and NOHOLD operands, which are discussed later in this chapter.

Example
To redirect the held output for the jobs associated with job name YOURID5 to your terminal, enter: `OUTPUT yourid5 PRINT(*)`

To redirect the held output from the jobs associated with a specific job name to a data set, issue the OUTPUT command and specify:

The job name
The PRINT operand with the second-level, user-supplied name of the data set to which the output is to go enclosed in parentheses

Example
To redirect the held output for the jobs associated with job name YOURIDX to data set USERID.HLDPRINT.OUTLIST, enter: `OUTPUT youridx PRINT(HLDPRINT)`

In the previous example, the system appends your user ID (YOURID) as the first-level qualifier. It uses the name you specify as the user-specified second-level qualifier, and OUTLIST as the default descriptive qualifier.
