Defining a New Global Member

Rules related to a specific application can use their own global member to isolate their variables from the rules of other applications, to enable the use of checkpoints or to perform initialization on an application basis.

To define a new global member, create a member in the GLB library and add its name to the global member list (DAGLBLST).

The global member list (DAGLBLST) is referenced by DD statement DAGLBLST of the Control‑O monitor procedure and usually resides in member DAGLBLST of the Control‑O PARM library. Each line of the global member list describes a global member (or database).
