Hi, In my shop we do not have IMS admin or IMS DC experienced people.
I need a IMS MPP compiler job. Can some one please provide a sample?

If not can someone please advice how does a MPP compiler differ from a standard BMP compiler.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I don't "do" IMS, but i suspect there are others in the organization that have compiled MPPs on the system. Suggest you talk with one of them. . .

You do not want to download something from "somewhere" and just toss it onto the system. People have been terminated for doing this . . .

There should be standard compile JCL for anything that is acceptable on your syste. The standard compile JCL should always be used, not something some developer put together.

Hello dick scherrer,
I am looking for a MPP compiler for reference only. I don't intend to run it in my org. Mainframe installation in the org where I work currently is in the process of being sunset(migrated to SAS). Version controller and other development tools are not available anymore. No documentation is available on the jobs that were used earlier. I am simply trying to learn IMS DC using what ever we have now.
