Go talk to your systems programmers, it is they that decide whatever about sysout classes.

This is purely site specific.

Hi,

This is just otner SYSOUT class, follow the suggestion from Expat to get the actual meaning of this at your shop.

Usually these type of classes are meant for Printers.

Ravi,
That link points to a JCL Standards document published by someone at the University of California at Santa Barbara and contains a lot of site specific stuff. It would be much wiser to refer to the JCL Reference Manual at this bulletin board (see IBM Manuals at the top of the screen).
