Hi,

While testing the jobs in development region ,some of the jobs output get prined at host.As far i know these are the possibilities to get print out at host.

(a)The msgclass is the one which specifies the output device, the output device where the output are sent.
(b)At sysout we can mention the ouput device(printer,ejes)
(c)If we give sysout=*,it takes output device mentioned in msgclass
(d)Output statements speciifed in jcl
(e)typing commands at EJES(spool) ,which is a command to print.

I have corrected all those information in the jcl where the output device is not a printer,all though i have done necssary changes in order to avoid printout at host,some of the jobs output gets printed,Is there is any way to avoid printout at host from a point of TSO user?Appreciate your help.

Hi VJ,

The below information may help you,

******************

THE ROUTE PRINT STATEMENT
NOTE: The use of the OUTPUT statement rather than the ROUTE PRINT statement is encouraged, as the OUTPUT statement has greater flexibility.
The ROUTE PRINT statement is used to specify the destination of SYSOUT datasets that are not routed by a DEST parameter on an OUTPUT card. The destination may be a JES printer, RSCS printer, or another user specified by node and userid.

This statement is identified by "/*ROUTE PRINT" in columns 1 thru 14 and the printdestination starting in column 16. The format for destinations is either UCSBMVS.Rnnn for JES printers or node.userid, or node.printername. Columns beyond 70 should not be used. There can only be one destination on a ROUTE PRINT statement.

The ROUTE statement is used in some systems because the job deck containing it was brought over by the MVT-to-MVS conversion team. To simplify the conversion effort and user training, this statement was retained. The OUTPUT statement is, however, the preferred method for routing system output.
