D Correct answer
Explanation

In JCL, the OUTLIM parameter on the DD (Data Definition) statement is used to limit the number of records written to a SYSOUT dataset. When this limit is exceeded, the system terminates the output and issues a message. LIMIT, SIZE, and MAX are not valid parameters for this purpose - OUTLIM is specifically designed for controlling SYSOUT output volume to prevent excessive spool file usage.
