Answer / divya
R1 contains a fullword that contains a address pointing to
tyhe parm data. In pgm before accessing the parm data use L
Rn,0(,R1) where n=3,..11 , Rn contains the address that
points to parm data. Create DSECT that contains a halfword
and the length of the data.

Answer / phils
If you include a parameter string/Dataset in the JCL SYSIN
DD statement then this can be retrieved by an assembler
program via code such as...
OPEN SYSIN
GET SYSIN,WS_PARAM
CLOSE SYSIN
Obviously if there are multiple parameters defined then the
get statement would be in a loop and the contents would have
to be stored in separate working storage fields
