ASSIGN Attachment-Set Attribute
The ASSIGN attachment-set attribute specifies the name and attributes of an ASSIGN.
(An ASSIGN is a parameter that assigns the name of an actual file to a logical file
name in a program. It also can specify the file’s creation and open attributes.) The
scheduler passes the ASSIGN to the executor-program process of a job using the
attachment set when the job starts.
ASSIGN-name
is the name of an ASSIGN. The name can contain from 1 through 31 letters,
numbers, hyphens, and circumflexes. The name cannot contain spaces.
( ASSI[GN] ASSIGN-name , ASSIGN-attributes )
Note. To avoid confusion, do not use the attribute keywords ASSIGN, DEFINE, and
PARAM as ASSIGN names.
