Concepts – IBM
main operating systems
Conceitos
Each operating system has its own language to code
“scripts” and to be the formal tool to
(a) user ask operating system for service execution
(b) operating system return results and messages to the
user
This language, in MVS and derived operating systems, is
known as JCL (Job Control Language)

the “waiting-for-execution” job(s) and begin their execution.
Initiator’s
Selection for
execution
Input spool
Area JOBS
What is the criteria for the selection?
The JOB class.
Summary

Alberto Romano Schiesari – www.profars.com
63
Execution
Each initiator deals with some pre-defined classes. Ex.
INIT 1 = jobs classes A, B and C
INIT 2 = jobs classes D, E and F
Input spool:
Job queue (jobs waiting for execution)
JOB0001 (class A)
JOB0002 (class B)
INIT 1 : server for jobs class A, B and C; in the
example, this INIT will select the jobs 0001 e
0002.
JOB0003 (class R)
JOB0004 (class D)
JOB0005 (class E)
INIT 2 : server for jobs class D, E and F; in the
example, this INIT will select the jobs 0004 e
0005.
JOB0006 (class T)
Etc...
Summary
While there is no INIT serving classes R and/or
T, the jobs 0003 and 0006 won’t be executed
(selected for execution)

INIT 1 pick up the information related to each step

Execution
1st. step :
- Identify which program must be executed (PGM=xxxxxxxx)
- Verify DISP of each DD:
-- IF DISP=OLD or DISP=SHR or DISP=MOD, verify whether the
dataset already exists, whether it is reserved / locked for another
user, etc...
- If DISP=NEW, create the dataset (does it exist? Is there enough
room? etc...)
- Ask LOADER to fetch program from the right library (is there
STEPLIB? Is there JOBLIB?)
Let everything set up so that OPEN can go smoothly... (*)
(*) unless the program uses DYNALLOC... As CICS does...

Execution
Dataset allocation:
(a) outside program, before starting the execution
(by initiator); information is provided by DD statement
(b) by the program (dinamically); in this case:
- no DD needed
- allocation is done by a service ordered to the operating
system (via macro / SVC) called DYNALLOC
(dynamic allocation)
- program must process the “no allocation possible” condition

72
Execution
1st. step :
Everything OK?
Then you can call the program for execution.
Order LOADER to fetch program and transfer control (remember
PSW? remember entry-point?) to the program’s 1st instruction.
In other words, (talking in assemblish...): INIT orders the
BALR 14,15 to transfer control to the program.
Summary
Prev.Pg.
Alberto Romano Schiesari – www.profars.com
73
Execution
1st. step :
Our program is executed.
What does it mean? It means that CPU executes its instructions.
But...
There are dozens of other programs that need to use the CPU time,
dreaming of CPU executing its instructions.
That’s when the dispatching priority comes.
It determines the privileges (or none) my program has in the
algorithm that determines how much time each cuncurrent
program get from CPU.
Summary
Prev.Pg.
Alberto Romano Schiesari – www.profars.com
74
Execution
1st. step :
What if a dataset is read, and the dataset is available via DD * ?
When OPEN is issued, the access method receives information
(set up by JES2) that the dataset is awaiting at the input job spool
(identified by its stepname and ddname).
Therefore our program is going to read data directly from input
spool area.

Execution
1st. step :
Our program finishes.
Talking in “assemblish”, on the last BR 14, control is returned to
initiator; especifically to a little-sub-component called terminator:
it verifies the end-of-execution type (normal, abnormal), Return
Code, closes the non-closed datasets, etc.

Execution
2nd. step and so on:
Process is repeated for all JOB steps, including the Return Code
test (COND...), to know whether or not the step must be executed,
flushed, etc...

Because everybody “printing” is intercepted by JES, and JES redirects
those lines to the output spool area. JES is its administrator.

Result output (reports)
Similarly as occur in the input process, there are system components to deal with the (real)
print demand generated by the queued datasets at output spool area.
These components are the WRITERS; they work based on SYSOUT class.
They read the spool datasets in the output spool area and “print” them at some device.

For the steps:
Remember that DDs are opcional.
If a program does not use datasets, no DD’s are needed
or
If a program uses dynamic allocation for a dataset, no DD
is needed to that dataset

JOB – Overview
If, for instance, the 2nd step “EXEC” has na operation code error,
it isn’t identified as a EXEC and therefore it does not identify
another new step delimiter, and therefore its DD’s are considered
as belonging to the 1st step DD’s.

As 2nd “EXEC” is in
error, it doesn’t delimits

DD
Positional parameters: DD
DUMMY
Just for input files; specifies that the dataset does not exist (phisically – only
logically).
System pretends to the access method (when dataset is opened, read, or closed)
that the dataset exists, but has no records (empty dataset).
In other words: it is correctly opened, with no problems, at the 1st read the end-offile condition is triggered, it is correctly closed.
It is a good alternative when program opens, reads and closes the dataset, even if
dataset does not exist (the data won’t be used). Example: a program that reads 2
files: FILEA with transactions from the current month, and FILEB with transaction
from past months of the year. In january (there is no past months in the year),
FILEB can be a DD DUMMY file.

Cataloged procedures are those:
- prepared
- cataloged (as a member) in a PROCLIB
so that they can be called for execution in
the jobs
- They cannot have JOB statement
- Start with PROC statement
- End with PEND statement
- They cannot have in-stream data (but they can be inserted
via override)

PROCS
Preparing the proc:
- Edit with Roscoe / TSO and save it. Ex.
//PROCDEMO PROC
//STEPX1 EXEC PGM=PGTST01
//INFILE DD DSN=XFILE,DISP=SHR
//OUFILE DD SYSOUT=A
//STEPX1 EXEC PGM=PGTST01
//INFILE DD DSN=XFILE,DISP=SHR
//OUFILE DD SYSOUT=A
//STEPX1 EXEC PGM=PGTST01
//INFILE DD DSN=XFILE,DISP=SHR
//OUFILE DD SYSOUT=A
//
PEND
- It is an “almost normal” JCL!
- No JOB statement is allowed
- Begins with PROC statement
- Ends with PEND statement
- No in-stream data allowed
This proc has 3 steps
(STEPX1, STEPX2 & STEPX3)

DD
DATA,DLM=‘FINAL’
