Defining SAPI File Disposition

You can use the NODE SAPI_DISP parameter of the Platform Server to specify the disposition of a dataset when a SPOOL request is completed.

You can set the following three dispositions:

• KEEP: Keeps the spool file.
• HOLD: Puts the spool file on hold, and tries the request again later.
• DELETE: Deletes the spool file.

The spool dispositions are used when a spool file request is completed and is removed from the Platform Server request queue. A request is removed from the request queue in the following three situations:

• Successful request: The request is successfully completed.
• Permanent network error: The request is ended with a network error and exceeds the try count defined.
• Permanent Error: The request terminates with an error other than a network error.
