Chapter 3 Tools : ALLOCDSN

ALLOCDSN
Allocates a file to a z/OS DDNAME. (C)
Invocation
CALL ALLOCDSN(ddname, dsname)
 
A character string specifying the DDNAME. Its syntax is C (fixed-length character string) with length 8.
Usage Notes
If ddname is already in use, the old file is freed before the new file is allocated. Otherwise, a data set allocated by ALLOCDSN is not freed automatically by TIBCO Object Service Broker.
The file referred to must be a z/OS sequential file. A member of a partitioned data set, such as PRODUCT.MAIN.SOURCE(DOB), is not allowed.

Exceptions
 
Example
The following rule allocates the example file to a z/OS DDNAME:

 
ALLOCDSN_1;
_ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
_ ------------------------------------------------------------+-----------
_ CALL ALLOCDSN('EXAMPLES', TSOID || '.EXAMPLES.DATA'); | 1
_ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
