Converting fileaid to filemgr

Postby dstsaconv » Thu Jan 09, 2014 2:28 am

we want to update in place a pds containing batch jobs (jcl). We need to change things like job class, msgclass, dates...etc across the board.

With fileaid, we can give it multiple UPDATE stmts, but when we run the fileaid to filemgr conversion job, all additional stmts after that 1st UPDATE stmt are commented out.

Using filemgr, how do you make multiple changes to a pds in 1 pass? :mrgreen:

I use this, and it works great. It's a batch job if that's what you want:

//SCANNER  EXEC PGM=FMNMAIN                           
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                               
//FMNTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*                               
//SYSTERM  DD SYSOUT=*                               
//DD01     DD DISP=SHR,DSN=WTSO.WNEG.TDR9.SCHEDULE   
//SYSIN    DD *                                       
$$FILEM FCH ,                                         
$$FILEM INPUT=DD01                                   
C 'EAUXBI' '9AUXBI'                                   
C 'TDR5' 'TDR9'                                       
C 'EBACKUP' '9BACKUP'                                 
C 'EBATCH' '9BATCH'                                   


As a side note, I just used 'DD01' as the DD name out of habit, it can be any valid DD name.

Again...I love the satisfaction of having a tool laying on the shelf that does just what someone needs. That's a great feeling.
