Issue/Introduction

Why error CAY6342W UNABLE TO LOAD JCS MODULE when validating a JCL member. 

 

 

Environment

Release: 12.0
Component: JCLCheck Workload Automation

Resolution

The warning message "UNABLE TO LOAD JCS MODULE" is issued when JCLCheck has failed to load the Job Control Standards module CAZ1SUSR. 

Job Control Standards (JCS) are rules that enforce site-specific standards for JCL. JCS was commonly used in older versions of JCLCheck, and before the preferred REXX interface became available. JCS is implemented by doing the following:

1. Create a Standard Rules data base.
2. Define the rules using JCLCheck ISPF panels.
3. Compile the rules, then assemble and link them as load module CAZ1SUSR into the JCLCheck load library.
4. Specifying runtime option STANDARD(name)

When JCLCheck encounters runtime option STANDARD (name), it loads module CAZ1SUSR. Failure to locate or load this module will result in warning message "CAY6342W UNABLE TO LOAD JCS MODULE".

If JCS is still being used, ensure that module CAZ1SUSR is accessible to  JCLCheck via a STEPLIB DD or in the linklist.

If JCS is not used, remove runtime option STANDARD (name) so JCLCheck no longer attempts to load the JCS module CAZ1SUSR.

If JCS is not used, and the warning message is issued when running EDCHECK (!JCK or %EJCK), then do:

1.   Execute command %EJCK PANEL to display the JCLCheck OPTIONS panel (panelid JCK21)
2.   On panel JCK21, blank out all values for option STANDARD.
