FM/Db2 may allocate data sets, depending on function. The allocation attributes for Audit Log, Print, Trace, SHOWSQL (used to display SQL) and XML Edit can be specified here. The Audit Log, Print, and Trace data sets are always permanent (catalogued) data sets. SHOWSQL data sets may be either temporary or permanent. XML Edit data sets are always temporary data sets. Temporary data sets have a high level qualifier like SYSxxxxx and are deleted automatically when the FM/Db2 function ends.

Any allocation values specified on this panel might be changed by SMS as part of the allocation process, and temporary data sets might be allocated to VIO, depending on SMS and other system settings.
