How does XINFO get CA-7 data?
Running CA-7 Batch Terminal: LJOB,JOB=*,LIST=ALL XINFO Scanner Read SYSPRINT of BTI Write the data, prepared to load in XINFO-Tables Find out all possible SCHIDs for every Job and creates dependencies, to build the graphic jobnetplan

SCHIDs within CA-7 Jobnetplan (1)
Dependencies within the jobnetplan are build with consideration of the SCHIDs Trigger and Req. using SCHID=000 are replaced by real SCHIDs Example: JOBA runs Mon with 001 and Tue with 002 JOBA triggers JOBB with SCHID=000 JOBB triggers JOBC with SCHID=000 JOBA triggers JOBD with SCHID=002

SCHIDs within CA-7 Jobnetplan (2)
SCHID 000 replaced by 001 SCHID 000 ersetzt mit 001 JOBA with SCHID 001 and once again with 002 SCHID 000 replaced by 002

Problems with the Batch-Terminal
Long duration: ca. 90 min. / Jobs Without JOB/PGM/DD-Table and LJOB,JOB=*,LIST=NODD Duration ~ 40 min. / Jobs One terminal occupied (you can avoid this using CCI, performance is slightly better) CA7-Batch-Terminal-Output-File has to be allocated new, with large space amount (requires CA-7 stop/start)

What‘s new with XINFO 2.3 No more dependent on Batch Terminal, the scanner reads now CA7-VSAM files. Duration: ~ 3 min. / Jobs Creator job of trigger DSN are shown as predecessors in the netplan. Info is based on: JCL (table JCL - DSN) CA-7 JCL (table sStep/DD Information) U7SVC command (Tabelle JCL - SYSIN) Jobs which are planned by using BTI or U7SVC command “DEMAND“ or “RUN“ are displayed graphically in the netplan. Info is based on Table JCL - SYSIN Table JCL - EXEC
