KEYDSN Option - mfx - 3.1

KEYDSN = data set name

The KEYDSN option specifies the name of a data set that you will allocate and populate with your license keys.   

Note that every sort step needs to have READ access to this data set. WRITE authority should be limited to the systems programming staff that maintains MFX. MFX dynamically allocates the data set, so there is no need for a DD statement in the sort JCL.   

Following is an example of a KEYDSN coding:

KEYDSN=SYNCSORT.MFX.R31.KEYS

For more information on how to create key data sets, see Using a Data Set for MFX License Keys.   

Note that since the KEY and KEYDSN parameters are mutually exclusive, you will have to delete the KEY parameter if you currently have it specified among your default options. If you already have MFX installed and are changing options at this point, see Changing Default Option Settings for more information.
