5.9 Allocating files and performing postprocessing
You can use extended script commands or the adshfile command to allocate regular files, temporary files, and program output data files and to perform postprocessing.
File allocation is an operation that occurs each time a command executes. It includes registering the handling of each file when job steps and jobs terminate and creating file names and file entities.
Postprocessing is an operation that occurs when job steps and jobs terminate. It includes deleting and retaining each file according to the definition specified during file allocation.
For details about the extended script commands, see 9.5 Extended script commands. For details about the adshfile command, see adshfile command (specifies the allocation and postprocessing of regular files).
