Catalog PARAMs
Catalog PARAMs
Use the Catalog PARAMs screen to add new PARAMs to the attachments catalog. You
can also use the screen to inquire about, update, and delete PARAMs already in the
catalog.
PARAMs are used to send values to processes that request parameter values when
the processes start.
PARAMs in the NetBatch-Plus catalog can be shared by any number of jobs. By using
these PARAMs, you can easily and quickly attach identical PARAMs to multiple jobs.
Instead of creating the PARAMs for each job, you need only create a single PARAM in
the catalog. You can then attach that PARAM to as many jobs as you want. Catalog
PARAMs also simplify PARAM maintenance. By updating the attributes of a catalog
PARAM, you automatically update those attributes for all jobs to which they apply.
You can attach catalog PARAMs to jobs by using the Job PARAMs screen. You can
also use that screen to override attributes of a catalog PARAM.
Displaying the Screen
From any catalog attachment screen, enter P or PARAM in the Option field and press
F13 to display the Catalog PARAMs screen.
