  2. CALL ‘CBLTDLI’ USING FUNC-CODE, DB-PCB-MASK, IO-AREA.

  3. CALL ‘CBLTDLI’ USING FUNC-CODE, DB-PCB-MASK, SSA-LIST.

  4. CALL ‘CBLTDLI’ USING FUNC-CODE, DB-PCB-MASK, IO-AREA, SSA-LIST.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Option C is incorrect because it's missing the IO-AREA parameter which is required for most DLI operations. All valid DLI calls must include FUNC-CODE, DB-PCB-MASK, IO-AREA, and optionally SSA-LIST (Segment Search Arguments). Options A, B, and D include these required parameters in various valid combinations, making them syntactically correct.
