CA JCLCheck Reports

CA JCLCheck Reports

This chapter provides an overview of the CA JCLCheck reports you can receive after JCL is processed. CA JCLCheck produces this first group of reports for each job in the JCL input stream:

• Report 1 - Listing of Jobstream JCL
• Report 2 - Listing of Merged JCL
• Report 3 - Data Set Cross-Reference
• Report 4 - Program Cross-Reference
• Report 5 - Report Listing (SYSOUT reports)
• Report 6 - Error Messages

Using the SXREF option, you can produce three summary reports in addition to job-oriented reports. These summary reports document the entire input production system. In this context, the production system refers to the series of jobs CA JCLCheck analyzes during a single execution. The summary reports include:

• Report 7 - Summary Data Set Cross-Reference
• Report 8 - Summary Program Cross-Reference
• Report 9 - Summary Report Listing (SYSOUT reports across all jobs)

A one-page listing of CA JCLCheck message output precedes the reports for the first job. This listing displays the level of CA JCLCheck in use and the options selected for the current execution. At the bottom of the last report, a message indicating NORMAL END OF CA JCLCHECK is displayed.

If you specify the GRAPH option to produce flow diagrams, the JCL is charted in standard job flow format, suitable for use in a runbook.

If you specify the AUDIT option you will produce an Audit Report with a statistical summary, input records, and averages of all related jobs, steps, and DD statements. The GRAPH and AUDIT options produce the following reports:

• Report 10 – Flow Diagram
• Report 11 – Procedure Cross-Reference
• Audit Report
