Some examples of system variables include:
- Variables related to the operating system and hardware environment, such as the name of the hardware platform, machine class, operating system version, and window manager being used
- Environment variables like the number of processors, current date, and current time, which provide system-level information
- Workflow-related system variables such as JOBCLASS in IBM z/OS, which can be used to specify job classes dynamically in workflows
- Predefined system variables in automation platforms, including date and time variables, loop counters, Excel-related variables, email variables, and PDF variables
- Windows environment variables like CSIDL_WINDOWS, which points to the Windows directory or system root path
These system variables are typically predefined by the system or platform and can be used to access system-specific information or control system behavior in scripts, workflows, or automation tasks
