NUM ON and the OFA Configuration Data Set

Symptom:

The following message is issued for an Object Migrator analysis, but the status remains Submitted in UI.

Migration Analysis successfully submitted.

The JCL for the user looks as follows:

//DEFAULQM JOB (129300000),'@DEFAULT',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X,               JOB15115
********************** EXPECTED CONTINUATION NOT RECEIVED ********************* 
//SYSIN     DD *               GENERATED STATEMENT                              
//       MSGLEVEL=(1,1),REGION=0M,NOTIFY=USERA01                                
//SYSIN     DD *               GENERATED STATEMENT

The OFA CONFIG members are created with NUM ON, which becomes part of the JOBCARD and creates JCL problems.

Solution:

Follow these steps: for all members in the CONFIG data set

1. Specify UNNUM to remove sequence numbers.
2. Specify NUM OFF to turn number mode off.
3. Resubmit the analysis.
