JCL DD statement
The information used to generate the JCL DD statement. This information is:
DD name
A read-only field. This holds the value specified in the LISTDEFDD DD name field of the OPTIONS Options panel (OPTIONS Options panel). If the library field is blank then no DD statement is generated in the utility batch job. The default is blank.
Text values
The values entered on these four lines are used directly to generate the DD statement, provided that the DD name field is not blank.
Utility statement
This value is used to generate the initial utility statements. If the field is blank, and the Use additional statements option is not selected, then no LISTDEF statement is generated into the utility batch job. If the field is non-blank, then the specified LISTDEF is generated with any additional LISTDEF statements supplied when the Use additional statements option is selected. The default is blank.
Use additional statements
If this option is set then more than one LISTDEF statement may be generated into the utility batch job. Select the Edit additional statements option to edit additional statements. Only LISTDEF specifications that have non-blank input fields are used in the generation. The default is not selected.

If this option is not selected, then only a non-blank value in the Utility statement field is used to generate the LISTDEF statement.

Edit additional statements
When you select this option and press Enter, the Additional LISTDEF Statements panel (Additional LISTDEF Statements panel) is displayed. After you have entered values on this panel and exited the panel, this option is deselected. The additional statements are used when you select the Use additional statements option. The default is not selected.

The LISTDEF Library Option panel has an installation-defined default. You can restore the default for the library option by entering the RESET command or pressing the RESET PF key. Each subsystem has its own installation-defined defaults. RESET also clears the Use additional statements option and any values in the Utility statement fields.

For more information, see LISTDEF and OPTIONS statements in DB2 Utility Guide and Reference.
