In order to migrate JCLs to other system withoud changing each JCL, we consider using symbols in JCL. All the symbols are coded in a PDS member, then include the member in the JCL.

But we have code a JCLLIB in the JCL to identify the PDS.
Then if migrate the JCLs to ohter system, the JCLLIB have to be modified in each JCL to fit for the different system.

Is there any way to make the JCL executale in any system without changing each JCL (only modify some symbols in one or several members)?

Thanks.

videlord,

If your shop has fileaid , you can change the JCLLIB name to name on the other system. check this link for an example

Easiest way is to get your sysprog to define a system variable eg

SYSDEF
SYSNAME(SYSA)

The variable can be set according to system requirements.

then in the jcl you can code

dsname=sys.&sysname.jcl
