Hi,

can someone explain me what is the use of SYSOUT=(1,,MYSI) in jcl.
In JCL code is like
//MYSI07F DD SYSOUT=(1,,MYSI),
// DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=133,BLKSIZE=6118)
//
Please explain what does it means.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Richa Mehra

Consult colleagues, your immediate superior, your support, look at the JCL reference for possibilities, but it is likely a site-specific thing, or something necessary for a Vendor's package.

See, for example, SYSOUT Parameter, Syntax, and Subparameter Definition. Ask someone you work with where the output is printed using " (1,,MYSI)".

Your question is answered, quite thoroughly, in the JCL Reference manual which can be reached via the link to IBM Manuals at the top of this page. However, if you want to know the specific meanings of 1 and MYS1 -- those are entirely specific to your site and, as was mentioned, can only be discovered by talking to someone who works at your site.
