DYNPRFX


1 DYNPRFX=
2.1! FMN0
2.1 xxxxx
DYNPRFX
Specifies the first 1 - 5 characters of the dynamic PSB names used by FM/IMS functions.

This parameter is used by functions that run in BMP mode and also by functions that run in DLI mode.

If the function runs in BMP mode or the PSBs are generated by the IMS Data Definition utility, the dynamic PSB names are obtained by appending a 3-digit number to the value you specify in this parameter. For example, if you specify DYNPRFX=FMN and DYNPRFN=3, FM/IMS uses FMN001, FMN002, and FMN003 for the dynamic PSB names.

Otherwise, the dynamic PSB names are obtained by appending '000' to the value you specify in this parameter. For example, if you specify DYNPRFX=FMN, FM/IMS uses FMN000 for the dynamic PSB name.
Note: If you plan to use dynamic PSBs, some customization of IMS may be required. For information on how to customize IMS to support dynamic PSBs, see Customizing IMS to support the use of dynamic PSBs.

This parameter is optional. If it is not specified on the FMN1POPI macro statement, FM/IMS uses either the value specified on the FMN1POPD macro statement (if specified on that statement), or FMN0 (otherwise).

The user cannot override the value you specify for this parameter.
