using internal reader we can submit a job using another job
| Code: |
//STEP050 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=SYSPDA.JCLLIB(JCL2),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY |
let jcl2 be the sub jcl then copy that job file to internal reader using IEBGENER that will make 2nd jcl executing one |

Hello,
JCL doesn't "call" JCL - that may have been what they were looking for or possibly the question was re-worded in the post.
JCL can do as the suggestion send other JCL thru the internal reader.
Another way for one JCL to invoke another is with a PROCedure or nested PROCedures where one PROC executes another.
Please let us know if the replies do not answer your question. |

JCL cannot call JCL, is this a trick question?
Programs can call programs by a number of means - FTP, MQSeries, Sysplex messaging, Batch Pipes, shared dataset etc etc.... |
