Products

• CA JCLCheck Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

Sample DD statement: 
//DATA1   DD  DSN=data.set.name,UNIT=3390,DISP=(,CATLG),  
//    SPACE=(CYL,(200,25),RLSE) 

CA JCLCheck returns error message:
CAY6077E NO "3390" UNITS ARE AVAILABLE FOR "data set name"

Same error is issued when UNIT=DISK is used. 
CA Allocate is enabled. 

 

Cause

CA Allocate does not participate in the JCLCheck allocation simulation because there is no interface between the two products.  
CA JCLCheck issues allocation errors  but the job actually runs fine because CA Allocate changes the allocation request on the fly.

Environment

CA JCLCheck 
CA Allocate
