The following ARCUNIT, ARCSPCT, ARCPRI# and ARCSEC# parameters control the sysout archive data set allocations. (The sysout archive is associated with the DO SYSOUT F command.) Whenever the Control‑M monitor activates a sysout archiving request, an archive data set is allocated using the following allocation parameters:
UNIT=arcunit,SPACE=(arcspct,(arcpri#,arcsec#),RLSE)

Description |
---|---|
ARCUNIT |
Unit name for the sysout archive data set. Maximum length: 8 characters. The physical address of a volume can be specified but this method is not recommended. BMC recommends specifying a unit that spans a few volumes, such as SYSDA, 3390, and so on. The volumes must be defined in member VATLSTnn in SYS1.PARMLIB with an attribute of STORAGE. |
ARCSPCT |
Allocation type for the sysout archive data set. Valid values are:
|
ARCPRI# |
Non-zero primary allocation size for the sysout archive data set.
|
ARCSEC# |
Secondary allocation size for the sysout archive data set.
|
ARCRET |
Archive retention period in days.
|
ARCHFBA |
Whether to create the Archive file with the FBA or the FB record format. Valid values are:
In previous versions, this was optional Wish WM1733. |
The archive data set's block size (BLKSIZE) is automatically calculated by Control-M. The logical record length (LRECL) is copied from the input SYSOUT file. The maximum LRECL allowed is 256 characters.
