Rules for creating a centralized script

To create a centralized script follow these rules:
  • The lines that start with //* OPC, //*%OPC, or //*>OPC are used for variable substitution and automatic recovery. They are removed before the script is downloaded onto the distributed agent.
  • Each line starts between column 1 and column 80.
  • Backslash (\) at column 80 is the character of continuation.
  • Blanks at the end of the line are automatically removed.

You can define a job to use a centralized script when you specify the automatic job options of an operation by setting the centralized script field. For example, if you are using the IBM Z Workload Scheduler panels, you must define the centralized script in the EQQAMJBP panel, that represents the automatic job options of an operation in the database.
