what is the difference between the JCLLIB and JOBLIB ,and
where do we use it ?
Answer Posted / manojkumar sivakumar
JCLLIB is used with either OS/390 or MVS/ESA Version 4 or
higher JES2 or JES3 systems, to identify a private library
or a system library from which INCLUDE groups and JCL
procedures are to be retrieved. The order in which the
library names appear on the JCLLIB statement is the order
in which they are searched for any JCL procedures (PROCs)
and INCLUDE groups referenced by this job.
The JOBLIB DD statement is used to identify a program
library to search first when attempting to locate programs
executed during the job's life. The JOBLIB must be placed
after the JOB statement and before the first EXEC statement
in the job. More than one program library can be
concatenated after the first one on a JOBLIB.
