They are dynamically allocated to the class specified (or defaulted) by SYSOUT(?) in your control cards (although you can pre-allocate them if you wish). If you want them all to one DD then you do have to pre-allocate a PPRPTS DD. Here is a snippet of my JCL that has some comments: //RMFPOST EXEC PGM=ERBRMFPP,REGION=100M //*STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS1.SERBLINK,UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=RESM60 //*MFPINPUT DD DISP=SHR,DSN=userid.SMF7079.SORTED //SYSABEND DD SYSOUT=* //MFPMSGDS DD SYSOUT=* /* MESSAGE OUTPUT */ //*MFRNNNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* INTERVAL RPTS */ //PPRPTS DD SYSOUT=* /* COMBINED INTERVAL RPTS */ //*MFXNNNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* EXCEPTION INTERVAL RPTS */ //PPXRPTS DD SYSOUT=* /* COMBINED EXCEPTION RPTS */ //*PPXSRPTS DD SYSOUT=* /* SYSPLEX RPTS */ //*PPPLTNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* PLOT RPTS */ //*PPEXTNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* EXCEPTION RPTS */ //*PPORPNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* OVERVIEW RPTS */ //*PPSUMNNN DD SYSOUT=* /* SUMMARY RPTS */ //*PPOVWREC DD DSN=userid.RMFPOST.OVERVIEW.RECS, //* DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE), //* SPACE=(CYL,(25,25),RLSE), //* DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=32756,BLKSIZE=32760) //SYSIN DD * SYSOUT(H) <remainder snipped> -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Programming expert at http://Search390.com/ateExperts/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
