When you specify the INCAT= and
OUTCAT= options in the PROC
UPLOAD statement, use the ENTRYTYPE= option in the PROC UPLOAD statement,
the SELECT statement, or the EXCLUDE statement to specify which entry types
to upload. The ENTRYTYPE= option is required only if you use a SELECT or an
EXCLUDE statement. If you omit the entry type and also omit the SELECT and
EXCLUDE statements, all catalog entries are uploaded. You can specify a single
entry type in
- the PROC UPLOAD statement, specify the ENTRYTYPE=
option.
- the SELECT or the EXCLUDE statement, specify the
ENTRYTYPE= option in parenthesis immediately after an entry name. If the type
is enclosed in parenthesis, it refers only to the entry name that immediately
precedes the option.
- the SELECT or the EXCLUDE statement, specify the
ENTRYTYPE= option after a slash (/) at the end of the statement. When used
following a slash, the ENTRYTYPE= option refers to all entries that are named
in the statement unless the same option appears in parenthesis after an entry
name.
- the SELECT or the EXCLUDE statement, specify the
entry type as part of the entry name. For example, you can specify TEST.MENU
in the list of entries.
You can use the ENTRYTYPE= option in multiple places.
When you do this, the UPLOAD procedure determines the type of each entry as
described below:
- by the entry type given as part of the entry name,
such as XYZ.FORMAT.
- by the value of the option in parenthesis immediately
following the entry name, if present.
- otherwise, by the value of the option after the
slash in the SELECT or the EXCLUDE statement, if present.
- otherwise, by the value of the option in the PROC
UPLOAD statement, if present.
Note: If you use the ENTRYTYPE=
option in both the PROC UPLOAD statement and a SELECT or an EXCLUDE statement,
the values must be the same. In most cases, if you are using the ENTRYTYPE=
option in a SELECT or an EXCLUDE statement, you should omit it from the PROC
UPLOAD statement. ![[cautionend]](../common/images/cautend.gif)
For releases after Release 6.08, the following message is displayed
if you try to upload an entry that is not compatible with an earlier release:
ERROR: Catalog upload to earlier version not
allowed. Backward compatibility not
supported.
See Example 2. DTS: Transferring Specific Member Types by Using SELECT or EXCLUDE Statements for examples of using
the ENTRYTYPE= option.
