CA JCLCheck Runtime Options › Description of Runtime Options › ERROR

ERROR

The ERROR option specifies the location of error messages on the CA JCLCheck reports.

This option has the following format:

ERror[([Start] [Inline] End [Inline]])]ôNOERR[([Start] [Inline] End [Nor6head]])]

Default: Error messages are generated in Report 6 only.

Start

Causes Report 6 - Error Messages to print at the start of the listing (Start), the (End) operand at the end of the listing (End), or within the expanded JCL listing, immediately following the statement flagged in error (Inline) operand. End is the default. Start also causes Report 6 - Error Messages to print immediately prior to Report 1 - Listing of Jobstream JCL.

Inline

Causes errors to print on Report 2 - Listing of Merged JCL Report.

End

Causes Report 6 to print immediately following Report 5 - Report Listing.

Nor6head

Suppresses the header on Report 6.

• If you do not specify the ERROR option (or you do not specify a location operand), error reports can appear in multiple places.
• Specification ER(I) should not be used with EDCHEK, SUBCHEK, or SPF SYSTERM because it suppresses message writing (except for CAY6000) to the SYSTERM exit; hence no error messages are displayed.
• Do not use ER(S E) with EDCHEK or SUBCHEK. It causes CA JCLCheck to write duplicate entries to the SYSTERM exit and to display duplicate error messages.

Example:

The following example requests that CA JCLCheck include error messages in the body of the listing (Report 2) and as a separate report at the end (Report 6):

ER(I E)
