where the following is true:
- MESSAGES
- Preferred location where the messages be redirected (normally written to DDNAME SYSPRINT in z/OS or stdout in UNIX systems); that is, sent to an additional destination, or both
-
fileid1 and fileid2
- Alternate message destination in the external system
-
UNIX and Windows Systems
-
fileid is the path name for a file. If the path name has embedded white space characters, enclose the entire path name in single or double quotes.
- If the path name is enclosed by single quotation marks and there is an embedded single quotation mark, then an escape character (single quotation mark) needs to precede the embedded single quotation mark. Likewise, if the path name is enclosed by double quotation marks and there is an embedded double quotation mark, then an escape character (double quotation mark) needs to precede the embedded double quotation mark.
- If the path name contains single or double quotation marks, it should be enclosed in either single or double quotation marks.
- ECHO
- Additional destination, with a fileid specification
- Use the ECHO keyword to specify, for example, that messages be captured in a file (fileid2) while still being written to the terminal.
The ECHO OFF specification cancels the additional file specification of a previously established ECHO destination.
