where the following is true:

'text'
Text to be written to the specified output destination
fileid
Data source of the external system.
The external system DD (or similar) statement specifies a file.
UNIX and Windows Systems:
infilename (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.
z/OS:
A true DDNAME.
If DDNAME is specified, Teradata TPump reads data records from the specified source.
A DDNAME must obey the same rules for its construction as Teradata SQL column names, except that:
  • The “at” sign (@) is allowed as an alphabetic character
  • The underscore (_) is not allowed
A DDNAME must obey the applicable rules of the external system and may reference a sequential or VSAM data set.
If DDNAME represents a data source on magnetic tape, the tape may be either labeled or non-labeled (if the operating system supports it).
