Language environment runtime options

A switch which enables logging/tracing of COZBATCH. Can be one of -LI (info), -LD (debug), or -LT (trace).

By default, COZBATCH will automatically strip line numbers from columns 73-80 of STDIN. If this is not desired, the -N switch can be supplied to disable this behavior.

One or more environment variables to set before running the Unix program.

The name of the Unix program or script to execute.

One or more arguments to the program, which may be double-quoted if necessary to allow spaces within an argument.

messages from the Co:Z batch utility and the z/OS language environment runtime. This file will be dynamically allocated to SYSOUT=* if not specified.

if present, this file will be read and directed as input to the Unix program or shell. An MVS dataset or JES SYSIN spool file may be used, in which case it it read as a text file such that records are separated by newline characters with trailing spaces removed from each record.

stdout output from the Unix program or shell will be directed to this file, or if not present it will be written to the SYSOUT DD. The DD may specify an MVS dataset or JES SYSOUT file.

stderr output from the Unix program or shell will be directed to this file, or if not present it will be written to the SYSOUT DD. The DD may specify an MVS dataset or JES SYSOUT file.

if present, this DD will be read by the language environment runtime and be used to set environment variables for the program. Each record or line in the file must be of the form: VAR=VALUE

if present, this DD will be read for environment variables (after STDENV). Each record must be in the form VAR=VALUE. In addition, any variables settings in the PARM= field will be written to the end of this file. See Chapter 3, Examples for more information on using this to pass arbitrary numbers/length JCL variables in environment variables. Note that variables set via the STDENV DD are not written to this file.
