Data set name
Name of the HFS data set to be mounted. The name must be unique amoung HFS data sets. You must specify
the data set name.
If you are defining a new data set, use these rules:
- A data set name can consist of segments, called "qualifiers", that are separated by periods.
For example, the Language Environment run-time library data set name is typically CEE.SCEERUN
or SYS1.SCEERUN, where CEE and SYS1 are each a high-level qualifier.
- Each data set name qualifier, including the high-level qualifier, is 1 to 8 characters. The
first character must be alphabetic (A to Z) or a special character (# @ $). The remaining 7
characters are either alphabetic, numeric (0-9), special, or a hyphen (-). Use a period (.)
to separate name segments from each other. Including all name segments and periods, the length
of the data set name must not exceed 44 characters. Thus, a maximum of 22 name segments can
make up a data set name.
- If you use a symbolic name as part of the data set name, you need to
allocate that data set for the target system when your msys customization
is completed.
