Modifiable Sysout Attributes

There are several IOF functions that allow you to specify sysout attributes for a sysout data set or output group. The table below describes all of the sysout attributes supported by IOF and indicates which IOF functions allow each attribute.

The Type column below indicates which functions allow that attribute. A P in the type column for an attribute means that it is allowed in the data set print command from IOF Job Summary and in the SS command. The SS command allows you to establish print attributes for subsequent SNAP requests.

A M in the type column means that the attribute can be used in the held data set modify function from the IOF Job Summary. The held data set function (M on IOF Job Summary) can only be used for sysouts that indicate HELD in their STATUS column.

A G in the type column means that the attribute can be used in the output group modify function (M) on the IOF Output Group Display and in the output group modify function (MG) on the IOF Job Summary. The MG function for IOF Job Summary is only supported for data sets that have a value displayed in their GRP field.
