- DESCRIPTION(text)
- You can provide a description of the resource you are defining in this
field. The description text can be up to 58 characters in length. There are
no restrictions on the characters that you can use. However,
if you use parentheses, ensure that for each left parenthesis there is a matching
right one. If you use the CREATE command, for each single apostrophe in the
text, code two apostrophes.
- GROUP(groupname)
- Every resource definition must have a GROUP name. The resource definition
becomes a member of the group and is installed in the CICS system when the
group is installed.
Acceptable characters:A-Z 0-9 $ @ #
Any
lower case characters you enter are converted to upper case. |
The GROUP name can be up to eight characters in length. Lowercase
characters are treated as uppercase characters. Do not use group names beginning
with DFH, because these characters are reserved for use by CICS.
