In RTC EE Build definition, Can the resource prefix have variable names that could be substituted at run time to form the DSN prefix name ?
Currently using RTC v5.0.2, Clarification on the build definitions, specifically zOS Dependency Build - Rational Build Agent.
Can the Resource prefix under "Jazz Source Control" be variables that could be substituted at the build request time ? Similar to Load directory.
Example:- HLQ.RTC.${APPLNAME}.${ENVNAME}
Use case:- We are having to create build definitions for each sub appl pneumonic since it takes literals.
Wish Goal:- Use variables that could be substituted based on the context within which the zFile lives (partial or full names of - zComponent, zComponent Project, zFolder)
Or any other alternative ?
Thank you,

That's true; But the way I see it is, that just shits the problem to a different side. Instead of having multiple build definitions, we will end up having multiple dataset definitions for each type(src-cob, pli, ezt, asm, jcl, proc, parm, etc.) of zFolder for each application (~20) , and also make sure to do the mapping/association correct.
