Environment

Resolution

Running the JOB06OP1 member from the CBAAJCL library for Easytrieve release 11.6, please check your JCL to ensure it has the following syntax:

 

 000106 //LOADDEF.SYSIN  DD  *
 000107 CREATEFILE
 000108 /*
 000109 //*****************
 000110 //ASMINI.SYSIN   DD  *
 000111    EZTINI EZOPTBL='@[email protected]'
 000112    END
 000113 /*

 

And, please note, as documented in the JCL, line 111 will need to reflect the name of the option file.
