Hi Gil,
Yes, this is characteristic of all repeatable subentries and there is no limit
to the number of SOURCEIDs that may exist for a SYSMOD.
I will let you be the judge as to whether the existing documentation is unclear
or you just missed the information.
The 'UCLIN and ENDUCL Syntax' section of the UCLIN command chapter of the SMP/E
Commands manual:
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v2r1/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.zos.v2r1.gim1000%2Fgim1217.htm
states the following:
Three types of statements are needed for UCLIN processing:
1. The UCLIN command indicates the start of UCL processing.
2. UCL statements follow the UCLIN command and describe the changes for a
specific entry. There are three types of UCL statements:
ADD, DEL, and REP. These statements can add, delete, or replace entries
or subentries in the entries.
- ADD is used to add the following entries:
- A new entry
- A new subentry to an existing entry
- A new subentry list to an existing entry
- A new subentry list value to an existing subentry list in an
existing entry
- A new subentry indicator to an existing entry
- DEL is used to delete the following entries:
- An entire entry
- A subentry
- A complete subentry list
- A value from a subentry list
- A subentry indicator
- REP is used to replace the following entries:
- A subentry in an existing entry
- A subentry list in an existing entry
- A subentry indicator in an existing entry
Note: Do not use the REP statement to replace an individual value in
a subentry list. If the entry already contains the specified
subentry list—for example, FMID(ABC1234,DEF5678)—SMP/E
replaces all the current values with the new value specified
on the REP statement.
Many UCL statements can follow a single UCLIN command. UCL statement
syntax describes the syntax of specific UCL statements
for each entry type.
3. The ENDUCL command indicates the end of the UCL statements and the end
of UCLIN processing.
