OPSH228W

A JES2 offset table for the current release of JES2 cannot be found. Automation that relies on the OPSJES2 REXX function will not function correctly.

Reason:

Several programs in CA OPS/MVS and the OPSJES2 REXX function require access to JES2 control blocks in order to perform their functions. Automation procedure failures will occur if any dependence on data returned by the OPSJES2 function is executed without an offset table. Offsets to data in JES2 control blocks often change for each release of JES2. Customer modifications to JES2 control blocks are also a source of JES2 control block changes. Default offset tables for various releases of JES2 are provided in the module OPJ2DF. No match has been found in OPJ2DF for the release of JES2 on this system. Source code for creating a JES2 offset table module is provided for assembly using the control block macros of the JES2 on this system. Module OPJ2CB must be reassembled and linked to provide a usable JES2 offset table. See the documentation references for the procedure required to create a new JES2 offset table.

Action:

The JCL needed to assemble and link the OPJ2CB module resides in the distribution tape in SYS1.OPS.CNTL(JES2ASM). Restart CA OPS/MVS to apply the changes.
