Where to Find a Batch Job Version of OPSVIEW Option 7.2

The Automation Analyzer can be run in batch. Member OPS.CCLXCNTL(BATCHAA) on the distribution media contains a sample JCL for running the Automation Analyzer in batch. You need to customize the JCL to reflect the data sets that are in use at your site.

To specify the parameters for the analysis, you need to modify the OPAAISPF REXX program, which is in the distribution REXX library. This simple program invokes the Automation Analyzer batch program (OPAABTCH) in an ISPF environment, passing up to 13 positional values:

  1. CA OPS/MVS subsystem name (for example, OPSS)
  2. Start date in the form yyyy/mm/dd
  3. Start time in the form hh:mm
  4. End date in the form yyyy/mm/dd
  5. End time in the form hh:mm
  6. Name of the OPSLOG data set or * to analyze the “live” OPSLOG or the log name specified on positional parameter 13 below for the subsystem specified in argument 1 above
  7. Analyze WTORs only (Y or N)
  8. Reply processing (Y or N)
  9. Ignore command echoes (Y or N)
  10. Ignore suppressed messages (Y or N)
  11. Ignore commands (Y or N)
  12. Ignore hardcopy messages (Y or N)
  13. OPSLOG log name

The 13 arguments above correspond to the entry fields on the OPSVIEW 7.2 panel. The Automation Analyzer Batch Interface supports all of the parameters available on the OPSVIEW 7.2 panel. You must set these arguments in your copy of OPAAISPF each time you run the Automation Analyzer in batch.

If the analysis executes successfully, a report is created in the ISPF list data set. Be sure to check the output of the batch job for the name of this report data set. The high-level qualifier given to the data set depends on the userid value that you specified in OPAAISPF.
