Check Exit 2

Control-M/Tape Exit 2 (CTTX002) can be used to modify the name of a job that creates a data set, the data set name and so on, so that certain data sets are considered as successive generations of the same data set in the Stacking Database. Sample Exit CTTX002R demonstrates how this exit can manipulate dsnames and jobnames to allow specification of stacking attributes according to dsnames and jobnames with shorter prefixes. For example, this exit can be used to group data sets with the same jobname and different suffixes (for example, to ignore timestamps in data set names).

Incorrect coding of Exit 2 may cause dynamic data set stacking problems.

For more information about this exit, see the CTTX002R and CTTX002 members in the IOA SAMPEXIT library.
