A JES data set group is a set of data sets within a JES job.
For parameter input, JES data set group is entered in one of two ways:
If the value entered for JES data set group is a single letter or digit, it specifies a particular JES class. The JES data set group consists of all data sets of the specified class in the JES hold queue.
If the value entered for JES data set group is "SYSOUT", it specifies all SYSOUT data sets.
If the value entered for JES data set group is any other multiple character value, it specifies an outgroup in the JES output queue. An outgroup may be composed of three parts separated by periods in the form name.qualifier.copy where name is the JES or user-specified name, qualifier is a JES-assigned number, and copy is the copy number. All data sets matching a partial out group specification (for example, name only) will be acted upon. To distinguish an outgroup with a one character name from a class, follow the name with a period.
