Rules for Reject File Naming on i5/OS

On i5/OS, PowerExchange uses the following reject file naming rules:

If you do not specify a reject file value, all reject file members that are created for a single session are located under one FILENAME. PowerExchange uses the following defaults:

LIBRARYNAME=DATALIB

This value is from the CRTPWXENV installation step.

FILENAME=PWXR
nnnnnn

Where nnnnnn
is the six-digit i5/OS job number.

For example:

FILENAME=PWXR713895

MEMBERNAME=strategy
_
i5OSjobnumber
_
uniquepwxref

The following table describes the variables in MEMBERNAME:

Variable	Description
strategy	I (Insert), U (Update), D (Delete), or M (Mutated Update)
i5OSjobnumber	A six-digit job number (nnnnnn )
uniquepwxref	A unique three-digit number (nnn )

For example:

MEMBERNAME=I713895001

Optionally, you can enter a LIBRARYNAME and FILENAME separated by a slash (/).

If you specify a LIBRARYNAME only, PowerExchange creates the FILENAME based on the default FILENAME format.

PowerExchange writes the reject file members for each session to a separate i5/OS file.

If you specify a FILENAME that ends with a slash (/) or a FILENAME that is more than four characters in length but does not end with a slash (/), PowerExchange uses that value as specified.

PowerExchange writes all of the reject file members for multiple sessions to a single i5/OS file.

For example, assume that you enter the following reject file value:

MYLIBNAME/MYFILENAME/

PowerExchange creates reject file members that have names in the following format:

MYLIBNAME/MYFILENAME/member_name

For the first session, PowerExchange writes the following reject file members to an i5/OS file:

LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/I713895001
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/U713895002
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/D713895003

For a subsequent session, PowerExchange adds the following reject file members to the same file:

LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/I713895001
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/U713895002
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/D713895003
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/I839406001
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/U839406002
LIBRARY/MYFILENAME/D839406003

If you enter a FILENAME value that is one to four characters in length but does not end with a slash (/), PowerExchange appends a six-digit job number to the file name.

For example, assume that you specify the following FILENAME value:

MYLIBNAME/PREF

PowerExchange will create reject file members that have names in the following format:

MYLIBNAME/PREFnnnnnn/member_name

PowerExchange writes the reject file members for each session to a separate i5/OS file.

For example, for the first session, PowerExchange writes the following members to a single i5/OS file:

LIBRARY/PREF713895/I713895001
LIBRARY/PREF713895/U713895002
LIBRARY/PREF713895/D713895003

For a subsequent session, PowerExchange writes the following members to a new i5/OS file:

LIBRARY/PREF839406/I839406001
LIBRARY/PREF839406/U839406002
LIBRARY/PREF839406/D839406003
