How to define and update the CA 11 Reason for Rerun Table

Products

• CA-11

Issue/Introduction

The UPRS function allows the Reason for Rerun table that resides on the CMT  to be maintained online.  How is this defined and updated in CA 11?

 

Environment

 

Resolution

The Reason for Rerun table is used to allow 4 character codes to be used for common rerun reasons when a job is rerun or setup for rerun.  This command only updates the CMT copy of the table.  The table is loaded  into common storage when DBAS is initialized and can be reloaded by issuing the REFRESH operator command.                                                

The Rerun Table also can be populated via the AL7REAT member that executes the U11OBD program.  Any additions to the table requires a unique code name.  Once the code and reason is defined, the Refresh command can be entered or the online UPRS function can be used to maintain the updated entry. See sample jcl below:

//RUN EXEC PGM=U11OBD                                   
//STEPLIB  DD DSN=YOUR.CAL7LOAD,DISP=SHR                
//         DD DSN=YOUR.DATACOM.CAAXLOAD,DISP=SHR  
//         DD DSN=YOUR.DATACOM.CUSLIB,DISP=SHR    
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*                                  
//RMSRPT   DD SYSOUT=*                                  
//SYSIN    DD *                                         
UPRS A,BAD1,1 - BAD INPUT FILE                          
UPRS A,JCL1,2 - BAD JCL OVERRIDE                        
UPRS A,OUT1,3 - THIS IS MY OUTPUT FILE                  
UPRS A,HARD,4 - HARDWARE ERROR

END
