Using Dynamic Job Descriptor Entries (DJDEs)

If the first record does not meet the requirements for a label record, the preceding DJDE packet is printed on an OPRINFO page with an error message indicating that no label record was found. The system then proceeds to process the data as variable text data.

If the file cannot be created due to insufficient space on the disk, the preceding DJDE packet is printed on an OPRINFO page with an error message indicating that there is not enough space on the disk to download the file. The system then proceeds to read and discard the file.

2.If the destination file type is acceptable, the system obtains the file size field from the label record and calculates the extent of the file.

3.The file name and file type that appear in the label block are converted to uppercase characters.

4.The system creates the file. If a file with the same name was created as a result of earlier processing of this report, the earlier copy of the file is replaced. Otherwise, a new copy is created.

5.The system reads the file data records and stores them in the file until the total extent of the file is spanned. The system ignores record delimiters, and processes only the data portion of the file.

If the FILE= () signaled the start of LPS labeled data, the system assumes that more than one LPS labeled file may be batched together, and checks for another label record when it completes processing a file.

If OPRINFO=YES and the file transfers are successfully concluded, the file name and file type of each transferred file are listed on the OPRINFO page with a brief indication of whether the file was newly created or replaced an existing file.

Delimited records To prevent loss of data through trailing blank suppression for LPS labeled procedures on the host spooler, data records for LPS labeled

files files must be delimited by appending an extra non-blank character at the end of each record. The same non-blank character must be used with all records processed during the file processing period.
