EXECBAT Member—Start the Batch Interface

The EXECBAT member in the SAMPLIB data set can be used to run the product as a batch job. The following example shows the JCL necessary to start the batch interface:

//EXECBAT JOB ,pgmrname,USER=userid
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=GSVXBAT,PARM='LINECNT=66,SHOWINP=NO'
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN DD *
input control cards
//

The user ID field on the JOB statement controls the user ID for the batch session. The actual field used for the user ID comes from the ACEE security control block. If there is no security system installed, the batch interface uses a default user ID of ++++++++.
