I have a few JCL members (20 members) in a PDS called- TEST.ABC
I would like to do a prep on all these members and have the information in a dataset.

Search on the forum did give some posts related to JCL prep. but it did not help my requirement. Does anyone know if this can be done through rexx or if JCL prep can be automated ?

Why, can you not read the product documentation yourself, because if it's a CA product we can't do it for you.

Ok, sorry but I dont think the manuals are available on net. is there any other method to check JCL syntax in a batch mode and have it recorded in a dataset. (ex - typrun = scan) Please suggest

If your site is licensed for the product then the manuals can be accessed and downloaded from the CA site with your access information.

You need to speak with your site support to either get that information or to have them download for you.
