Specifying input parameters

VOLUME EOV

Specifies the action the system takes when it encounters an end of volume (EOV) on the input data tape.

Syntax VOLUME EOV = ([PAUSE NOPAUSE], [EOF NOEOF])

Options

Table 2-62. VOLUME EOV parameter options and definitions

Option

Definition

 

 

 

 

PAUSE

Displays a message when EOV is encountered. A CONTINUE response by the

 

operator causes the tape to rewind and the normal volume change sequence to

 

proceed.

 

 

NOPAUSE

Issues a rewind instruction as soon as the EOV label is processed.

 

 

EOF

End of file.

 

Specifies that the end-of-volume label is treated as an end-of-file label. When

 

this occurs, the first part of the page spanning the volumes is output as the last

 

page of the job. The second part of the spanned page is printed as the first

 

page when the next volume is started, with possible page format irregularities.

 

To use the EOF parameter effectively, special user-formatting of the multireel

 

tapes is required to avoid these page format problems.

 

 

NOEOF

No end of file.

 

Specifies normal end of volume processing.

 

 

Defaults NOPAUSE, NOEOF

VOLUME EXPAGE

Enables data error logging and reporting of unprintable characters that do not have font bitmap or outline data in the font file. (Errors are flagged on a separate page.)

Syntax VOLUME EXPAGE = {YES NO}
