Syncsort^TM Storage Management includes customizable JCL and control statements.

Comments at the top of the JCL specify what needs to be customized for your environment. Please do not change any other lines in the JCL.

The first section includes commentary & instructions for editing.

The second section provides the control statements for the report & generally has few available modifications.

The last section covers the field names used in the report. From a reporting perspective it is all customizable. Users familiar with Monitor reporting will likely want to skip to the data dictionary section.

FIELD &field name [LEN(#)] [FILTER ([field name]].
FIELD &JOBNAME LEN(8) FILTER(JOBNAME)

Both LEN and FILTER are optional keywords.

Users may add additional fields as well as use the LEN keyword to adjust the length of fields. For example:

Example A

Organizations may have file name conventions for their datasets such that all datasets are less than 32 characters. By specifying

FIELD &DSNAME LEN(32)

their reports don’t include 12 unnecessary blanks for dataset names.
