Compile and Link in Batch Mode (z/OS)

You can compile and link through a batch job submission.

Follow these steps:

1. Tailor and submit the member EDCCPL within your Common Services runtime JCL Library (CNSMJCL).

   This job compiles, prelinks, and links the example agent and assembles the default user runtime options module, creating module EXAGENT in the Common Services Load Library.

2. Tailor and submit the member EXAGNT within your Common Services runtime JCL Library (CNSMJCL).

   This job starts the example agent.

The links that are performed include the default user options for the example agent to provide the runtime options for the IBM Language Environment (LE). In some cases, users want to tailor the LE parameters to meet certain site-specific requirements. If so, edit the EDCCPL jobstep that assembles the user options table CEEUOPT.

The job streams named above can also be used as sample JCL decks for the compilation, linkage, and submission of user-built agents.

Note: For more information about the development and deployment of these agents, see the CA NSM Inside Systems Management and Inside Systems Monitoring guides.
