Posted: Fri Jul 18, 2003 2:41 am Post subject: Varying a Job Name and Step Name |
|
|
1. I have a JobCard as Code: | //TSODIBA1 JOB .... |
Here first seven characters are user id and whenever someone copies it he has to edit it. Is it possible to pass &SYSUID in the jobname?
2. Similarly I have a step Code: | //LGE1110 EXEC ASMCL .... |
Here stepname is a program name which again has to be edited for every new program. Is it possible to pass a variable, defined by SET, in the stepname?
I could acheive these by putting JCL in a REXX code but I want to know a method limited to JCL techniques only.
Regards,
Diba |

I'm pretty sure that the answer to both questions is no.
However you could acheive 1, assuming that the users use the SUBMIT command, by omitting the job statements. If doing so the SUBMIT command kindly utilises your userid, depending upon options you may be asked to specify additonal characters for the jobname. You may be restricted from using this according to site conventions/restrictions. _________________ Regards,
