&JOBNAME Within JCL, the substitution text for &JOBNAME is the name of the job assigned to the address space in which the JCL is converted, not the name of the job being processed. For instance, if JES2 does the conversion, &JOBNAME resolves to JES2.
This works for me in 2.5 // EXPORT SYMLIST=(SYSJOBNM,SYSJOBID,SYSUID) // SET SYSJOBNM=&SYSJOBNM // SET SYSJOBID=&SYSJOBID // SET SYSUID=&SYSUID //IEBGENER EXEC PGM=IEBGENER //SYSUT1 DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY LASSE &YYMMDD &SYSUID &SYSJOBNM &SYSJOBID //SYSUT3 DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE), // LRECL=080,RECFM=FB, // SPACE=(TRK,(01,01),RLSE), // DSN=&SYSUID..&SYSJOBNM..&SYSJOBID //Lasse -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> För Sri Hari Kolusu Skickat: den 18 augusti 2024 18:47 Till: [email protected] Ämne: Re: Ability to pass symbolic variable back from REXX to JCL? >> Follow-on question - I have looked through JCL Ref Guide & Init & Tuning >> Guide and can't seem to find what I am looking for.
