| Valid in: | DATA and PROC steps (when accessing DBMS data using SAS/ACCESS software) |

| Categories: | Bulk Loading |
| Data Set Control | |
| Default: | none |
| Requirement: | To specify this option, you must first specify BULKLOAD=YES. |
| Data source: | DB2 under z/OS |
| See: | BL_DB2IN= data set option, BL_DB2MGMTCLAS= data set option, BL_DB2PRINT= data set option, BL_DB2REC= data set option, BL_DB2STORCLAS= data set option [contains sample code], BL_DB2UNITCOUNT= data set option, BULKLOAD= data set option |
This option applies to the control file (BL_DB2IN= data set option), the input file (BL_DB2REC= data set option), and the output file (BL_DB2PRINT= data set option) for the bulk loader. Use this option to specify a data class for a new SMS-managed data set. SMS ignores this option if you specify it for a data set that SMS does not support. If SMS is not installed or active, the operating environment ignores any data class that BL_DB2DATACLAS= passes. Your site storage administrator specifies the data class names that you can specify when you use this option.
