Issue/Introduction
With a batch URT for a COBOL program running in z/OS, what URT option should be used?
The manual states that the DBURINF COBOL=YES option is only for z/VSE.
Should LE=YES be used?
Environment
Release: All supported releases.
Resolution
The COBOL=YES option is only for zVSE.
For z/OS the DBURINF LE=YES option is available for COBOL programs that will run under the z/OS Language Environment runtime.
If the z/OS Language Environment runtime option RTEREUS=ON is used to create a reusable runtime environment and OPEN=DB is used in the DBURINF macro then the DBURINF option LE=YES should also be specified.
The Common Services CAW0MAC macro library and the LE macro library CEE.SCEMAC must also be concatenated to the SYSLIB DD statement in the assembly step JCL, otherwise messages ASMA057E Undefined operation code will be encountered.
