1. A Simple Cobol Example – ISPF vs RDz Enterprise Systems1

2. Traditional ISPF ISPF document Job stream would include Cobol Program wrapped with JCL Likely in PDS named accountid.work.compiles as extension was not critical Job would be submitted Would look for output in JES TSO SDSF ST Owner accountID to reduce list to your jobs Put ? by appropriate entry Put s by file(s) to review for errors If error, then back to file, correct and repeat process–(see ISPF Document) 2Enterprise Systems

3. Cobol Example Program reads a record from a file, selects specific fields from the record and writes the line. JCL matches system setup at the University of Arkansas Good example to illustrate application JCL references to system resources like the Cobol compiler and to data files 3Enterprise Systems

4. Cobol Example (single job stream) 4Enterprise Systems

5. Cobol Example (single job stream) 5Enterprise Systems

6. Cobol Example (single job stream) ALL JCL statements must be in Upper Case Three JCL statements JOB – information related to the job to be run EXEC – executes a program or a procedure DD – data definition  points to data and files Example //COBJOB JOB (COBOLPROG),'ACCTID',NOTIFY=ACCTID, // CLASS=A,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),TIME=1,MSGCLASS=A //STEP1 EXEC PROC=IGYWCLG //COBOL.SYSIN DD * … Cobol Program with references to input (READER) and output (DISKFL1) … //GO.DISKFL1 DD DSN=ACCTID.WORK.OUT(COBOUT),DISP=SHR //GO.READER DD * …. Data // 6Enterprise Systems

7. Cobol Example (single job stream) EXEC statement //STEP1 EXEC PROC=IGYWCLG Executes a procedure name IGYWCLG This procedure has all the programs needed to compile, link needed files to create an object module and go—run the program. The CLG ending is CompileLinkGo 7Enterprise Systems

8. Cobol Example (single job stream) DD statements //STEP1 EXEC PROC=IGYWCLG //COBOL.SYSIN DD * IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. …..Rest of Cobol program 8Enterprise Systems

9. Cobol Example (single job stream) DD statements The DD statement below allows the Cobol program to abstract the name used in the program. The READER points to a DD statement to be used for input SELECT CARD-IN ASSIGN TO UT-S-READER. //* //GO.READER DD * ANDERSON ESSABIA ANNIECE XXXXXXXXX ISYS4283 002 ….... /* // 9Enterprise Systems

10. Cobol Example (single job stream) DD statements The DD statement below allows the Cobol program to abstract the name used in the program. The DISKFL1 points to a DD statement to be used for output SELECT DISK-FILE1 ASSIGN TO UT-S-DISKFL1... //GO.DISKFL1 DD DSN=ACCTID.WORK.OUT(COBOUT),DISP=SHR, // VOL=SER=DB1469,SPACE=(CYL,(1,1,1)),UNIT=SYSDA, // DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=6400,DSORG=PO) 10Enterprise Systems

11. Cobol Example (single job stream) DD statements The DD statement below allows the Cobol program to abstract the name used in the program. The DISKFL1 points to a DD statement to be used for output SELECT DISK-FILE1 ASSIGN TO UT-S-DISKFL1... //GO.DISKFL1 DD DSN=ACCTID.WORK.OUT(COBOUT),DISP=SHR, // VOL=SER=DB1469,SPACE=(CYL,(1,1,1)),UNIT=SYSDA, // DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=6400,DSORG=PO) 11Enterprise Systems

12. Cobol Example (single job stream) 12Enterprise Systems DD ParameterMeaning DISP(MOD,KEEP) DISP  Disposition. Relates what is to be done with the PDS. In this case, it is modify and keep. There are many possibilities but can you guess what NEW, CATLG and OLD, DELETE do? VOL=SER=DB1469 VOL  Volume, SER  SERIAL. This is analogous to a letter for a disk drive on your PC. TEMP91 is The name of the disk. SPACE=(CYL,(1,1,1)) Defines space for the file in terms of cylinders—you could also use tracks UNIT=SYSDA SYSDA  Systems Direct Access and means a disk DCB=(RECFM=FB.. DCB  Data Control Block, LRECL  Logical Record Length BLKSIZE  Block Size and should be multiple of the record length DSORG  Dataset Organization – Partitioned Organization The DD Parameter

14. Cobol Example (single job stream) Review JESYSMS Place letter “s” to left of JESYSMS 14Enterprise Systems

15. Cobol Example (single job stream) Find COND CODEs—hopefully, all zero 15Enterprise Systems

16. Cobol Example (single job stream) Locate error If error is in compile, then review Cobol Correction requires moving around to the correct file to make the corrections and then resubmittig 16Enterprise Systems

18. RDz This same job stream can be submitted within RDz in tack if placed in a PDS with x.x.JCL However, take advantage of RDz color coded syntax checking by putting Cobol, JCL, etc. into appropriate PDS,s recognized by the RDz editors Suggested PDSs ACCTID.WORK.COBOL ACCTID.WORK.JCL ACCTID.WORK.Data Submitted job and JES output in same area If error, can correct with RDz editor—rerun No navigation to other interfaces required 18Enterprise Systems

20. Cobol Example (JES) 20Enterprise Systems

21. Cobol Example (JES) (Error) MOE instead of MOVE— open SYSPRINT file Find error in editor 000055 MOE CRD-PWD TO CRD-OUT-PWD. ==000055==> IGYPS2072-S "MOE" was invalid. Skipped to the next verb 21Enterprise Systems

22. Cobol Example (Using PDSs to Advantage) JCL goes into ACCTID.WORK.JCL COBOL goes into ACCTID.WORK.COBOL Input data goes into ACCTID.WORK.DATA RDz editors sense type of file and provides color-coded syntax checking Right-click, select submit on the JCL to execute job Job will be in JES for viewing 22Enterprise Systems

Cobol Example (JCL) 23Enterprise Systems //COBJOB JOB (COBOLPROG),'DOUGLAS',NOTIFY=DOUGLAS, // CLASS=A,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),TIME=1,MSGCLASS=A //STEP1 EXEC PROC=IGYWCLG //COBOL.SYSIN DD DSN=DOUGLAS.WORK.COBOL(SIMPLEC),DISP=SHR //GO.DISKFL1 DD DSN=DOUGLAS.WORK.OUT(COBOUT),DISP=SHR //GO.READER DD DSN=DOUGLAS.WORK.DATA(SMPLDATA),DISP=(OLD,KEEP)
