Why 16 is used in calculating the DPRTY ? as, DPRTY = (num1, num2), THEN, DPRTY = 16* num1 + num2
IBM,
4 11673As PARM can supply information to a program ? Can PARM be used to supply information to a cataloged or Inline Procedure also ?
2 6543What is Automatic Restart ? EXEC PGM = PROG1, RD = R (Is it the Restart of a JOBSTEP or Restarting the execution of the program?) Do we Restart it or it automatically Restarts executing again and again ? Then when it will finish executing ? or After Abending, when we submit it again, then it is Restarted from the Last successful Checkpoint ? If some JOBSTEP is abending, what is the benifit to Restart it, WILL IT NOT ABEND AGAIN if you don't change the LOGIC ?
IBM,
1 6386What does it mean by Restart and Checkpoint in JCL ? How are checkpoints being taken and what is their usage ? How to use Checkpoint macro on a JOBSTEP ?
IBM,
9755If a JOBSTEP abends, AND without using COND also, all the subsequent steps execute, then what is the use of using EVEN ? Why do we use EVEN when without it also all the JOBSTEPs execute ?
IBM,
2 6552COND -> step1 . . step2, Step2, Executes if the CC of step1 is 0. But even if it is NOT 0 and if we dont give COND, will step2 be executed ?
IBM,
4 9411IF WE GIVE COND on step3 then, What does the following mean ? And Just adding to that, All the below COND are VALID as per the specifications. (i) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2) ---(AND/OR ?) (ii) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2, ONLY), (iii) COND = (8,LT,step1,ONLY) will it execute only if this condition is true or only if step1 ABENDS ? (iv) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2,EVEN), (v) COND = (8,LT,step1,EVEN) ?
IBM,
2 6468Are all (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) of the below are VALID to reference a temporary dataset ? STEP2 DD1 DD DSN = &&TEMP STEP3 DD2 DD (i) DSN = TEMP (ii) DSN = *.TEMP (iii) DSN = *.STEP1.DD1 (iv) DSN = *.STEP1.DD1.ONE

How to read and write a single record into a file. I would like to use it to enter a single 8-character piece of information and use it to put it into a variable for processing in JCL. Thank you
I have many files which i am receiving from client everyday. I have one step for every file to check for empty or not. Here client gives 30 files i need to check for every file for empty or not and i need to perform 30 steps. Can I do it in single step. Dynamically i need to change the File name in my step.
Explain how can an in-stream dataset be terminated?
How is the record format of an output dataset specified?
What statement can be used to send data to another mvs jes3 node?
I have a COBOL program that ACCEPTs some input data. How do you code the JCL statement for this?
have in 100 records in a file i want to read first 3 records and skip next 3 records and agan i want to read 3 records and again i want to skip 3 records... run a loop from record one to 10 evaluate i/3 if comes even then skip else write to output file
