Multiple Control Statement Sources
CA JCLCheck now supports control-card checking from multiple control statement sources (ddnames). For example, DFSORT accepts control statements from the following ddnames:
The $UPT macro that the JCLUPT module uses now supports expanded CTL parameter values. Previously, the single specified ddname was required when a value was in the CTL parameter. With CA JCLCheck Version 12.0, the $UPT macro now supports the following CTL parameter syntax:
CTL=(ddname1[{-R|-O|-C}][,ddname2[{-R|-O|-C}],...])
The CTL parameter accepts multiple ddnames. Additionally, a ddname suffix is supported allowing the ddname to be coded as Required, Optional, or Conditional. If no ddname suffix is specified or ‘-R’ is specified, the ddname is required. If ‘-O’ is specified, the ddname is optional. If ‘-C’ is specified, the ddname is conditional. If one or more conditional ddnames are specified, at least one of the group of conditional ddnames must be included in the JCL. For example:
$UPT CTL=(SYMNAMES-O,DFSPARM-C,SYSIN-C,JNF1CNTL-O,JNF2CNTL-O)
In this example, the SYMNAMES, JNF1CNTL, and JNF2CNTL ddnames are optional. If the CTLSCAN option is active, the control statements are listed and processed for each of the specified ddnames. The DFSPARM and SYSIN ddnames are conditional. Either one or both can be specified in the JCL, but at least one of them must be specified in the JCL.
DFSORT Control Card Syntax Checking
CA JCLCheck now supports syntax checking of all DFSORT control statements when DFSORT is invoked using JCL. Syntax checking of DFSORT control statements is not supported when DFSORT is invoked from another program.
DFSORT performs syntax checking of symbol definitions from SYMNAMES and all DFSORT statements from DFSPARM and SYSIN. Additionally, syntax checking of DFSORT statements from JNF1CNTL and JNF2CNTL for JOINKEYS applications is supported.
Other Sort products that are compatible with DFSORT and use an alias to the sort program name (for example, SORT) are also supported.
ADRDSSU Utility Control Card Support
CA JCLCheck now provides support for the ADRDSSU IBM utility. You can now validate the control cards ADRDSSU uses to see if they are correct before the job is run.
