The
formServicePgmType build descriptor
option specifies the type of print services programs to generate for IMS™ BMP or z/OS® batch. You can specify one or more entries.
When specifying multiple entries, use a comma between the entries,
for example:
GSAM,SEQ,MFS
Values
- ALL (the default value)
- Generate all the mapping services programs that apply to the target
system, for example:
- GSAM, MFS, and SEQ is generated for IMS BMP
- GSAM and SEQ is generate for z/OS batch
If you specify ALL with any other entry, the effect is the same
as only specifying ALL.
- SEQ
- Generate a batch mapping services program that supports writing
to a printer or to a QSAM file. This value is valid for z/OS batch or IMS BMP.
This
is the default value for z/OS batch.
- GSAM
- Generate a batch mapping services program that supports writing
to a GSAM file. This value is valid for z/OS batch
or IMS BMP.
- MFS
- Generate a message format service (MFS) print mapping services
program and the MFS source definitions. If the form group contains
text forms, also generate a form group format module, as well as the
COBOL copybooks for MFS. This value is valid only for IMS BMP.
