 |
|
Hi,
Let me know whether there is anyway to read a file from JCL and pass the file content to JCL which will be used as a parameter in the JCL.
For ex:
In the below statement instead of hard coding the *, I need to read a file and then put that value here.
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

No, you cannot do this directly.
What you can do is generate "new" jcl with the dynamic info resolved and submit this generated jcl thru the Internal Reader. Talk to someone on your system to learn how this is done on your system.

If your file can be in the form of a JCL INCLUDE statement, you can use it to set the "class" when your job is submitted.
Your file:
Your JCL: | Code: | //MYPROCS JCLLIB ORDER=(your.PDSfile.name)
//*
//*
//* INCLUDE STATEMENT EXAMPLE - FETCHED FROM JCLLIB
//*
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
// INCLUDE MEMBER=yourmembername
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=&MYCLASS |
