Next, we make a copy of the supplied Exit. We modify the Exit so it copies the received file instead of submitting it to InfoPrint Manager using pdpr. The Exit must use the first passed parameter as the name of the resource file and the third passed parameter to derive the target resource file name, because the DCF mapped it that way. Since we did not pass the desired resource directory name in the JCL, the Exit needs to determine the drive and directory and pre-pend it to the target resource file name. Since this Exit will only be used on a receiver that receives AFP resources, it does not need to identify the file as an AFP resource and have a paths for both copying resources and submitting non-resources to InfoPrint Manager to be printed. The Exit can also be coded to detect and react to error situations as appropriate. Lastly, we use the Management Console to create the receiver that will use the DCF and Exit that we created. In this example, the Target Destination that we specify when we create the receiver is irrelevant and will only be passed to the Exit if no NAME is specified in the JCL that submitted the resource. Submitting multiple data set jobs MVS Download and AFP Download Plus send each JES SYSOUT data set separately to the MVS Download receiver on Windows. By default, the receiver spools each data set as a separate file. On MVS, a job can contain multiple data sets. Use this procedure to customize your installation for MVS Download multiple data set job support, so that the data sets in a job sent to InfoPrint Manager through MVS Download print in sequence, with no intervening files, no NPRO processing between files, and only one header and trailer page for the set. InfoPrint Manager now enables multiple data sets to be received, individually transformed by ACIF into MO:DCA-P, and then combined into a single file and spooled. InfoPrint Manager uses the medium maps (copy groups) from the form definition that is associated with each data set to build a comprehensive inline form definition that it inserts at the beginning of the combined file. Use these procedures to install and configure MVS Download support for printing multiple data set jobs. v "Requirements to use multiple data set support" v "Installing multiple data set support with MVS Download" on page 168 v "Limitations of multiple data set support" on page 169 v "Technical description of multiple data set support" on page 170 Requirements to use multiple data set support To support the printing of multiple data sets in a job as a single unit using MVS Download, you must: v Install a special MVS Download user exit 15 program on MVS. v Create a MVS Download Receiver on your InfoPrint Manager system with parallel processing turned off.
