How to invoke JCLCheck CLIST SUBCHK for use with the SUBCHEK feature

Products

• JCLCheck Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

After the JCLCheck SUBCHEK feature is enabled, a SUBCHEK control file needs to be allocated in the TSO logon procedure.
Example:  //SUBCHKDD DD DSN=CAI.CAZ2OPTN(CAZ1SSUP),DISP=SHR

Optionally, this file may be allocated or deallocated using a CLIST.
JCLCheck provides a CLIST name SUBCHK in the CAZ2CLS0 library for this purpose.

How do I execute CLIST SUBCHK? 

Environment

Release: 12.0

Component: JCLCheck Workload Automation
 

Resolution

1. Place CLIST SUBCHK in a data set that's allocated to DDname SYSPROC in the TSO logon proc.

2. From an ISPF Command Line, enter TSO %SUBCHK ON  or  TSO %SUBCHK OFF
    or
3. From the ISPF Command Shell, enter: %SUBCHK ON or %SUBCHK OFF 

Note:
%SUBCHK ON allocates the SUBCHEK options control file to DDname SUBCHKDD
%SUBCHK OFF deallocates SUBCHKDD 
 

To execute CLIST SUBCHK from within an ISPF Edit session ( %SUBCHK ON or %SUBCHK OFF), the CLIST must be modified as follows: 

ISREDIT MACRO (PARM) PROCESS                                  
CONTROL LIST CONLIST SYMLIST                                  
  IF &STR(&PARM) = OFF THEN SET &SW = 1                       
     ELSE SET &SW = 0                                         
  IF &STR(&PARM) = ON THEN SET &SW = 2                        
  IF &SW NE 0 THEN FREE FI(SUBCHKDD)                          
  IF &SW EQ 2 THEN -                                          
   ALLOC FI(SUBCHKDD)   +                                      
          DA('CAI.CAZ2OPTN(CAZ1SSUA)') SHR REUSE          /* change the data set name */                  
  IF &SW EQ 0 THEN -                                          
   DO                                                         
    WRITE SUBCHK CMD IS USED TO ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE SUBCHEK   
    WRITE OPERAND IS 'ON' TO ACTIVATE, 'OFF' TO DEACTIVATE    
   END
