DD card information:
For a regular batch program, yes. Unfortunately most of our
programs are IMS, and as far as I know you cannot pass PARM data
down to the application program.
For those who don't know IMS, this is how an IMS batch program is executed:
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=DFSRRC00,
// PARM=(DLI,DDADMP,DDMPPSB)
I may be confusing this program with a different program but I have
the impression that it allows you to pass a parm to the application
program by adding "/passed-parm" to the parm field:
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=DFSRRC00,
// PARM=(DLI,DDADMP,DDMPPSB/XXXXXXXX)
