(OUTPUTDD). If this parameter is not specified, no output record exit is used.
See “Output Record Exit” on page 126 for more detailed information.
OUTPUTDD=OUTPUT |
DDname
(OS/390, MVS, and VM)
Specifies the DDname for the output document file ACIF produces when it
processes a file. The
DDname
is a 1–8 byte character string containing only
those alphanumeric characters supported in the operating environment. When
ACIF processes a print file, it writes the resultant converted print data to this
DDname. If OUTPUTDD is not specified, ACIF uses OUTPUT as the default
DDname. Suggested DCB characteristics of the file are:
Variable blocked format
A maximum record length of 32 756
If a record length other than 32756 is specified, it is possible that ACIF will
produce a record of length greater than that which is allowed by the
OUTPUT DD statement. The result of such an occurrence is that ACIF will
terminate abnormally.
A block size of 32 760
Physical sequential format

filename
(DEVT=TAPE | DISK) (VSE)
Specifies the file name that appears on the DLBL or TLBL JCL statement, a
1–7 character string containing only those alphanumeric characters supported
in the operating environment. Characteristics of the file are:
A block size of 32 760
A maximum record length of 32 756
If a record length other than 32756 is specified, it is possible that ACIF will
produce a record of length greater than that which is allowed by the DLBL
or TLBL JCL statement. The result of such an occurrence is that ACIF will
terminate abnormally.

data set name1

data set name...
] (OS/390 and
| MVS)
| Specifies the data sets that compose the overlay library. A maximum of 8 data
| sets can be specified. The parameter also specifies the concatenation
| sequence when ACIF searches for a particular overlay resource. ACIF first
| looks for the resource in
data set name1.
If ACIF cannot find the resource in
|
data set name1
, it continues the search with
data set name2
, and so on, until it
| either locates the requested resource or exhausts the list of specified data sets.
| EXAMPLE
| OVLYLIB=SYS1.OVLYLIB,USER.OVLYLIB
| If USERLIB is also specified, ACIF searches for the resource in the data sets
| specified in USERLIB before searching the data sets identified in OVLYLIB.
