JCL scripting (INCLUDE)

Postby wolffsw » Thu Jan 24, 2019 7:05 pm

Hi Forum,

I want to include an USS file in my JCL-script and I got the error:
"Input not recognized "
Can anyone help me?

Regards, Stef

When I tell somebody to RTFM or STFW I usually have the page open in another tab/window of my browser,
so that I am sure that the information requested can be reached with a very small effort

every well written program prefixes its messages with a MSG id
<some letters><some numbers>

to make easier the research in the manuals

since You did not care to post the MSG id the only thing that we can do is just guess

and just repeat what the program told
the string read from the DDNAME SYSIPT was not recognized

nothing from the data posted implies that using an USS file is the culprit

Hi Enrico,
Thank you for your replies:

The content of the USS file:
INPUT=MAPLIB2(M942201A) OUTPUT=MAPFILE
INPUT=MAPLIB2(M942201C) OUTPUT=MAPFILE

So the JCL script (with the USS file included):
...
//SYSIPT DD *
INPUT=MAPLIB2(M942201A) OUTPUT=MAPFILE
INPUT=MAPLIB2(M942201B) OUTPUT=MAPFILE
/*
....

The JCL script runs well with the statements hardcoded; however the members of the USS file will change everytime so that's why I want to include the file.

the topic is leading to nowhere

why not read the product manual to see the correct syntax of the include statement ?

or as an alternative, instead of

//INHFS     DD PATH='/u/ups/ucdtest/insert_into_wtx_jcl.txt',
//             PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)                            
//SYSIPT    DD *                                              
  INCLUDE INHFS                                              
/*


try
//SYSIPT    DD PATH='/u/ups/ucdtest/insert_into_wtx_jcl.txt',
//             PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)                            
 
cheers

no doubt about
INPUT=MAPLIB2(M942201A) OUTPUT=MAPFILE



but what about
INCLUDE INHFS    

which seems the statement causing the error
