Re: JOBGROUP in JCL
Good question. We use an ISV tool to scan production JCL before it moves into production, and are disallowing these JCL keywords. At this point we are disallowing this functionality in any PROD environment for this very reason. I never even looked in the manuals, but it would be nice to be able to enable/disable this functionality in its entirety via a PARMLIB setting. _ Dave Jousma Manager Mainframe Engineering, Assistant Vice President david.jou...@53.com 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Tim Hare Sent: Friday, February 09, 2018 4:32 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: JOBGROUP in JCL **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** Has anyone documented the JOBGROUP interaction with existing schedulers? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
