OVOLUME={output_volume}
| Default | None |
| Allowable Values | Volume names with 1 - 6 characters |
| Minimum | Not Applicable |
| Maximum | Not Applicable |
This parameter defines the volume that is used for the output dataset for a transfer. If this parameter is used, the catalog is not used to allocate the output dataset. The Platform Server verifies that the dataset exists on the output volume specified.
This parameter must be used with extreme care, because most sites use only cataloged datasets. If you use this parameter with a cataloged dataset, and specify a different volume than the one the cataloged dataset resides on, a duplicate uncataloged dataset will be created on the OVOLUME volume.
Note: This parameter is valid only when Platform Server is receiving a file from a remote system or is sending a file to another TIBCO MFT Platform Server z/OS.
