Hi ,
Iam writing Rexx to automate a set of TEST jobs for one application and i have done it and it is working .As part of automation we have wriiten a set of Delete / define step for GDG and Delete for NON-GDG files using IDCAMS in One Job and this Job will be executed as first job as part of automation . This step will have all files defined in all test jobs .
For every time if there is change in JCL to have new file GDG/ NON GDG in any job i need to add this in first job (DEL/DEF job) . Is that possible to have rexx to deduct the change (only any new file added ) and write it accordingly for GDG/ NON GDG .
Can any one please assist/ advise me to proceed with this ? |

yes.
assign only one person to be responsible for changing your precious jobs.
if that person fails to make the appropriate additions to control center,
otherwise known as the DEL/DEF job
have that person thrashed and placed in stocks in the middle of the operations center.
that will insure the next person to take on this sacred responsibility,
will be properly motivated. |

as usually the answer is .. it depends,
You will have to parse the <jcl's> determine which datasets are to be <processed> ( added to the delete define jcl/step )
and... voila' le jeux sont faites
if You have the skills and the time it' s pretty easy...
but , is it worth the effort ??? |

At first, how was this done? How did you you 'choose' these files?
Manually? If not, you already have your answer, I believe. |
