Hi,

A job can be executed through a cobol program.

So the first job should execute this cobol program which contains another jcl that will be executed. (Totally two jobs are submitted)

Like this we can execute any number of jobs.

As this one procedure, please let us know the other procedures.

Hi,
U can use IEBEDIT utility to triger the job from JOBA TO JOBB ..

uSE THE BELOW code

//JOB1
//STEP0001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=Source job2 DSN (eX test.joblib(JOB2)
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD * DUMMY
//*
Please code end of the job1 , this will trger the job2. Smillar way you can code job3 from job2 and job4 from job2 ......
Hope it may help you for auotrigger the job without scheduler tool.

Param,
Does the same method works for a steps inside a PROC? as what I have is a PROC which was executed using a JCL.The PROC have 10 steps(say for eaxmple).

Assuming RUNJCL executes PROC and my PROCNAME is 'PROC'

I have coded the follwoing just to execute the step01 from PROC
using IEBEDIT

//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=XXXX.XXXX.XXXX.(RUNJCL)
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
/SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=PROC.STEP01
/*

But this fails as its not recognise Operation code..

Any recommendation u have on this?

Hi Han,
I don't thin k so we can call procs step in IEBEDIT . Bocz the utility scans the JCL steps and it does not include the proc steps while scaning the step .

Psarith,
It looks like the JCL is executing a REXX program for this.

Param,
Thanks for the update..

most shops have a run class for 'serial execution' -- in other words one and only one batch initiator has the class defined

submit all jobs in the order you want them to run specifying that same 'serial' run class for each of the jobs.

Hi

Param could you tell me the significance of having the SYSUT2 step in your code what does the SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR) means.

SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR) will write the file in SYSUT1 to the JES2 which will get executed

As the original poster did not mention somewhere "It is very urgent" , why not ?

But it is true he mentionned " Thanks in advance"
