-L=num-errs
directs DataLoader/MP to terminate if the number of error messages reaches num-
errs errors.
If this parameter is not specified, DataLoader/MP continues regardless of the
number errors detected.
-O= [out-file ] [ (o-mod [, o-mod]...)]
specifies an output file to write, with optional modifiers or interpretations, or both.

out-file
is the name of the file or DEFINE to be used for output. If out-file
contains any “/” characters, NM DataLoader/MP assumes the file is an
OSS file.
If you enter -O= but do not enter a file name, DataLoader/MP uses its OUT
file. If the file does not exist, DataLoader/MP will create a file. If the file
name is a Guardian name, DataLoader/MP will create an edit file. If the file
name is an OSS name, NM DataLoader will create a plain OSS file.
If -O= is not specified, DataLoader/MP does not automatically write records
to an output file, but you can still write records from a user exit to any file.
bufsize
is the size of the buffers.
sepchar
is an alternate separation character. The default value is a comma (,).
