Specify and Submit the Parameters using ISPF

This procedure describes how to specify the product-specific parameters that CA JCLCheck calls to resolve, using ISPF. If you returned to the CA JCLCheck ISPF main menu panel and selected option 7 in the previous step, the External Variable Specification panel is available. A different panel is in use for each scheduling product; this topic contains an example of each panel. For a list of the parameters for each supported scheduling product, see the following topics or the Tutorial Help panels:

Follow these steps:

Specify all relevant parameters for the scheduling product in the products panel.
Specify the name of the resolve parameter data set in the 'Resolve Parm File' field.
The resolve parameter data set must be a sequential file. If no data set name is specified, userid.JCKRESLV.PARMS is used. If the Resolve Parm File does not exist, it is allocated automatically.
Specify the Input File to identify the JCL that is going to be resolved.
Specify the file allocation size for the RESJCL file that is used to pass the resolved JCL to CA JCLCheck for validation. This file is temporary.
Enter a 'Y' in the 'Update PROFILE with these options' field and hit enter.

Depending on the scheduling product, the Resolve Parm File may display in edit mode so you can enter options. After editing, Press PF3 (END) to save.

The External Variable Resolution Submission panel (JCK0217) displays for all scheduling products.

Specify the following fields: Foreground or Batch submit, SYSTERM, SYSPRINT, and any additional CA JCLCheck options. The following are sample options:

Once you set any field, it is set to the same value when you return to the panel.

All other parameters on this menu are the same as the other CA JCLCheck invocation panels. When you press Enter, CA JCLCheck is invoked.

If you selected the foreground option and specified 'Y' in the SYSPRINT field, you see the SYSPRINT file from the preprocessor of the scheduling product. This SYSPRINT file is in addition to the standard CA JCLCheck SYSPRINT file.
