z/OS DFSMSrmm Implementation and Customization Guide
SC23-6874-00

You can request that DFSMSrmm produce labels using a WTO on route code 13 or using the OUTPUT JCL statement to send labels to a spool file or a printer. You control the method DFSMSrmm uses by specifying an OUTPUT JCL statement in the DFSMSrmm started procedure as described in Step 8: Updating the procedure library. The name on the OUTPUT JCL statement must exactly match that specified for the DD name of the disposition control file.

If you use the OUTPUT JCL statement method, DFSMSrmm dynamically allocates a sysout file for each label using the DISPDDNAME OUTPUT JCL statement. You use the attributes of the OUTPUT statement to define how the label output is to be printed. For example, you can route the output to another system, specify a special forms type or use any of the OUTPUT statement keywords.

If you do not provide an OUTPUT JCL statement in the DFSMSrmm started procedure, you must configure a console to accept WTO messages on route code 13 so that the labels can be printed.
