JCL with CA-7 "schedule overrides"

Postby regina » Wed Mar 24, 2010 8:55 pm

Hi,

Is there any way to list JCL with CA-7 "schedule overrides" only (#JI, #JO cards)?
I could find nothing in CA-7 Maintenace DB Guide.
I ran GRAPHD and got number of jobs w/# overrides had running for certain period of time,
but I need total number of CA-7 jobs using such JCL. Is it possible?

Thank you.

Why not do an ISPF search of the job library for #J?

sorry, doesn't work.
use option 3 (UTILITIES), then 4 (DSLIST).
In library -- LOCATE string #JI and...
got bunch of JCL without Jcard.
What did I do wrong?

Thank you.

Oh, no luck at all
3.14 --> Search String .. #JI
Data Set Name ... 'library.name'

and received list of ALL members

What's wrong now?

Thanks for your time and efforts

Hello,

and received list of ALL members
Is this truly ALL of the members or just most members?

Is it possible that the every member does have #JI - even if it is not used/active/commented?

The dataset may have been set up to easily handle overrides, so the question may not be "does the value exist" but rather "is it active"?
Hope this helps,
d.sch.

Yes, ALL
It is Indicated Row 00001 of 07162


Using 3.4 gives me exactly the same number .

And we have about 5-7% members with JCL override, but I need exact number

What else can be done?

Thank you.

Hello,

Sounds like the value (#JI) is in every member. . .

How else may the 5-7% with overrides uniquely be identified?
Hope this helps,

As example my test JCL with #JI

//RSDELAY JOB (000025,10),PRCL,
// CLASS=C,MSGCLASS=2
/*ROUTE PRINT REDUCE
//*
//STEP999 EXEC UCC7TRLR
//TRLR.SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//TRLR.SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DATA,DLM=##
/LOGON
#JI,ID=10
DEMAND,JOB=RSTEST11,TIME=+0002,SCHID=10
#JEND

and another without, but both of them were selected

//RSWAIT60 JOB (000025,10),REG.,MSGCLASS=2,
// CLASS=C
/*ROUTE PRINT REDUCE
//*
//JSW20 EXEC MESSAGE,P='WAIT=60'
//SYSIN DD DUMMY,
// DCB=BUFNO=1
/*

I also tried search string UCC7TRLR - same result

Hello,

Hopefully, you begin the search this way:
                              Search-For Utility                 Strings found
Command ===>                                                                   
                                                                   More:     +
Search String  . . #JI                                                         
                                                                               
ISPF Library:                                                                 
   Project . . .                                                               
   Group . . . .          . . .          . . .          . . .                 
   Type  . . . .                                                               
   Member  . . .                 (Blank or pattern for member selection list, 
                                   "*" for all members)                       
Other Partitioned, Sequential or VSAM Data Set:                               
   Data Set Name . . . 'your.ca7.library(*)'                                   
   Volume Serial . . .           (If not cataloged)                           
                                                                               
Listing Data Set . . . SRCHFOR.LIST                                           
Data Set Password  . .           (If Search-For data set password protected)   
                                                                               
Enter "/" to select option               Execution Mode        Output Mode     
   Specify additional search strings     1  1. Foreground      1  1. View     
   Mixed Mode                               2. Batch              2. Browse   

When i search our ca7 library, it only returns info on the members that "match" the #JI. . .
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
