Issue/Introduction

We have a  requirement  to find the total number of jobs defined in each environment  for Jobtrac.  We also need to pull the entire job details on each environment.  How do we  collect  data on the total number of jobs defined in the JOBTRAC scheduling tool?

Environment

Release : 11.0

Component : JOBTRAC

Resolution

    Jobtrac does not have a job definition for jobs.  Jobtrac has JCL libraries and the number of members in the JCL libraries is the number of jobs  defined in Jobtrac.  The JCL libraries have low level qualifier of TRACJnnn (starting from 000 which is the default ranging to 254).  The DYNAMALOC member in the Jobtrac PPOPTION dataset will reference several LOCnnn members which will show  location specific TRACJnnn libraries.   You can browse each of those LOCnnn members (also in the PPOPTION dataset ) to see the TRAJCnnn JCL libraries in use at your site and determine the total number of jobs defined in Jobtrac.
