Hi
I have some problem in passing parameter value from jcl to program.
My requirement is; I have a cobol-DB2 program that fetches data from DB2 table based on the vendor name. I should get the vendor name from JCL. We have one JCL where we set the vendor name, and call the proc. as follows:
//xyz JOB jobcard details
// JCLLIB ORDER=(XYS.ABC.DEF)
// SET HLQ=DEV
// SET PRE=T
// SET LVL=D
// SET VEN=ABCD
//JOBLIB DD DSN=DEV.PGM.LOAD,DISP=SHR
// INCLUDE MEMBER=XXX1111
In include member XXX1111
// SET CONTROL=XYZ1234
//STEP010 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,
// PARM='UTL00000 PGM=DUPLICAT,HLQ=&HLQ,LVL=&LVL,PRE=&PRE',
// DYNAMNBR=20,
// COND=(0,NE)
// INCLUDE MEMBER=UTL01CI1
//STEP020 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,
// DYNAMNBR=20,
// COND=(0,NE)
//FS DD DSN=&HLQ..XYZ.EXTRACT.&VEN..TEMP,
// DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
// SPACE=(TRK,(150,75),RLSE),
// LRECL=95,
// RECFM=FB
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=U
//SYSTSIN DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(XYZ1234),
// DISP=SHR
The control card XYZ1234 is as follows:
DSN SYSTEM(DB2&PRE) RETRY(2)
RUN PLAN(&LVL.EUMN0) PROGRAM(EUM403P1) -
LIBRARY('&HLQ..PGM.LOAD') -
PARMS('&VEN')
END
Could any body help, what is the problem in this JCL parm?
when I display the vendor name it shows &VEN instead of ABCD
Thanks in advance

| Are the other symbolic parameters being substituted correctly? Please show your expanded JCL as it appears in JESJCL or whatever it's called. |

Hi Ravi,
Have you tried with removing single quotes in PARMS?
I am thinking that since you mentioned the &VEN in single quotes system might be considering it as a string

| why would you expect the contents of &HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(XYZ1234) to undergo substitution? |

your sysin contains the following:
| Code: |
DSN SYSTEM(DB2&PRE) RETRY(2)
RUN PLAN(&LVL.EUMN0) PROGRAM(EUM403P1) -
LIBRARY('&HLQ..PGM.LOAD') -
PARMS('&VEN')
|
I would break the above into several members of the parmlib, and then use the symbolic as the member name for a concatenated sysin:
| Code: |
//SYSTSIN DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(&pre.sys),
// DISP=SHR
this would contain
DSN SYSTEM(DB2T) RETRY(2)
// DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(&lvl.plan),
// DISP=SHR
this would contain
RUN PLAN(DEUMN0) PROGRAM(EUM403P1) -
// DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(&hlq.lib),
// DISP=SHR
this would contain
LIBRARY('DEV.PGM.LOAD') -
// DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(&ven.parm),
// DISP=SHR
this would contain
PARMS('ABCD')
//SYSTSIN DD DSN=&HLQ..DUPL.PARMLIB(END),
// DISP=SHR
this would contain
END
|
in effect, you would have to generate a hardcode parm
for each potential symbolic,
then use the symbolic to create the member name.
by the way, not sure if PARMS is the correct spelling, could be just PARM, but I am not going to look it up. |

"...not sure if PARMS is the correct spelling, could be just PARM..."
It USED to be PARMS but last time I used it, PARM is acceptable also. |

| I don't see how removing the COND parameter fixed your problem. Could you show us your working JCL for the benefit of others? |
