Hi,
I am using BPXBATCH to run a shell script but the directory name is too long. How can I use the too long parm. Please suggest.
Here is my BPXBATCH:
| Code: |
//STEP0001 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,REGION=0M
// PARM='sh /usr/aci/base24eps/v092/b24d/b24d/bin/cardrf b'
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//*TDIN DD PATH='sh /usr/aci/base24eps/v092/b24d/b24d/bin/cardrf b'
//* ,PATHOPTS=(ORDONh B
//STDOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//STDERR DD SYSOUT=* |
Error:
3 IEFC605I UNIDENTIFIED OPERATION FIELD.
Thanks,
Abhijit. |

| Only you says it is too long - you are allowed 100 characters. Suggest you read your error message and understand it - if necessary look in the Messages and Codes manuals. Then you will see your error. |

Let me show you something:
When I tried with the following code :
PARM='sh /usr/aci/base24eps/v092/b24d/b24d/bin/test1'
The code works well as the full line is between 12-80 cols.
But the code:
PARM='sh /usr/aci/base24eps/v092/b24d/b24d/bin/cardrf b'
is exceeding beyond column 80.
So, I have to continue the directory name in next line.
I tried with below but still no luck:
PARM='sh /usr/aci/base24eps/v092/b24d/b24d/\||
\bin/cardrf b'
Thanks,
Abhijit. |

Hi Enrico,
Can you please provide the manual or any link to check the continuation of parm.
Thanks,
Abhijit. |

Did you "paste" your JCL? There is a comma missing after =0M.
You can also "pull" your PARM way to the left to get more in. |

Definitely the comma. Your error is on line 3. You have JOB card (which you haven't shown, but I think we can assume :-) ), EXEC card, line 3 if PARM is attached to tje EXEC card would be the DD for SYSOUT.
Instead, a lonely PARM has been found as the third card in your deck. And PARM is an UNIDENTIFIED jcl statement.
Maybe with the PATH for STDIN you can even remove the path from the PARM anyway? Just the path needed, not the reference to the script. |

That one was typo error from my side which I later fixed. Temporarily I asked to ADMIN to reduce the name of the script so that I can use it in one line. I used it and ran successfully.
Enrico,
There are lots of manuals and I was not sure which one I have to look for BPXBATCH and also I was running out of time, so, sorry I used the above solution.
Thanks,
Abhijit. |

your running out of time is not our concern
and the PARM length is not a BPXBATCH problem, just a JCL problem
any JCL using the PARM clause might benefit by how to use a PARM up to its maximum allowed length |

'sfunny. Don't you suspect this would work? Which has a PARM value longer than your example.
Why did you show us JCL with a "typo" which just happens to give you the exact message you were querying with us? And which can't be achieved anyway with a PARM even longer than you are specifying.
When you do something dumb, 'fess up. Everyone has done it sometime before. But to try to hide it?
Maybe you found it after posting. In which case, why didn't you tell us? Save us all looking at it and concentrate on what your new "problem" would then be. Nothing. |
