ChekPlex Overview

The following diagram shows the ChekPlex remote-validation process.

The activity at each numbered step is described below:

  1. A request for JCL validation is submitted to the Local server by one of the following methods: via the EDCHEK feature panels, in a batch job, or via the JCLCheck ISPF panels.
  2. The Local server forwards the request to the Target server.

    The Target server compiles the required files and builds the environment to run the validation request. CA JCLCheck runs on the Target server.

  3. The Target server requests the required files from the Source server.

    The Source server contains the source JCL.

  4. The Source server passes the required source to the Target server for processing upon request.
  5. The Target server calls CA JCLCheck and the JCL is validated.
  6. The results of the JCL validation are captured in a report.
  7. The report is sent to the Result server.

    The Result server stores the report and waits for the Local server to retrieve it.

  8. CA JCLCheck completes the JCL validation request.
  9. A token is sent to the Local server notifying the results are available.
  10. The Local server passes the token to the Result server and requests the report.
  11. The Result server sends the report to the Local server.
