ROUTE
Example 1
allowed as an alphabetic character and the underscore ( _ ) is not allowed. The DDNAME
must also obey the applicable rules of the external system. If DDNAME represents a data
source on magnetic tape, the tape may be either labelled or nonlabelled (if the operating
system supports it).
On UNIX systems, an asterisk (*) can be used as the fileid1 or fileid2 specifications to route
messages to the system console/standard output (stdout) device. The system console is the:
• Display screen in interactive mode
or
• Standard output device in batch mode
.ROUTE MESSAGES TO FILE OUTPUT WITH ECHO TO FILE SYSOUT;
ECHO, when specified with OFF, stops routing output to the previously established echo
destination.
Example 2
.ROUTE MESSAGES FILE OUTPUT;
The messages are written to the file designated by OUTPUT from this point unless redirected
by another ROUTE command.
In UNIX-based systems, if “outfilename” is used to redirect “stdout,” and also as the file in a
ROUTE WITH ECHO command, the results written to “outfilename” may be incomplete due
to conflicting writes to the same file.
