Record write exits

The sample library member EQQU831 contains the assembler source code of a record write exit, IEFU83. HCL Workload Automation for Z uses events generated from the exit to track print group and purge information.

If your installation is already using an IEFU83, incorporate the code into your existing exit and reassemble.

You can optionally include support for both the data set triggering and job-tracking functions using the EQQU831 sample. This provides you with a method to automatically generate a special resource availability depending on specific actions affecting data sets. The event can be used by HCL Workload Automation for Z to change the status of a special resource to make it available for operations and/or to trigger an application to be added to the current plan. You specify the data sets you want special resource availability events for using a specific macro, as described in Invoking the EQQLSENT macro. For more information about data set triggering, see Implementing support for data set triggering. Use the EQQSMF sample to install EQQU831.

If you do not track print operations through HCL Workload Automation for Z, and you do not want to include data set triggering support, you need not change IEFU83.
