Variable Assignment |
Modifies working parameters for a job and/or passes parameters to a job when the job is submitted. Defines variables that can be displayed in a Notification message or Do Mail message when a job completes. NOTE: This parameter is called in certain Control‑M/Server utilities and in Control-M. |

Variables can be used in this parameter to indicate the name of the library or directory in which the file described in the parameter is located. |
Member |
Variables can be used in this parameter to indicate the name of the file containing the job commands or job script. |

Notification |

Output |
Variables can be used in the field which provides supplementary information about the handling of the job’s output (for example, a filename) when the job ends OK. |
The Variable Assignment and Set Variable parameters can also use the %%LIBMEMSYM variable to reference a list of variable expressions in a separate text file. You can also use the variable %%POOLSYM to reference Name Pool variables. For more information, see Variable lists.
