Issue/Introduction

The JCLCHECK statement in the CA 7 init deck has parameter JCS=Y to force the use of the JCLCheck Common Component (FMID CAZ2C00).  

When JCLCheck attempts to open and read the JES2 procedure library, a security violation occurs follows by a S913 abend. 

How to avoid the 913 abend?

Cause

Runtime option AU (Autoproc).

Resolution

1. Turn off option AUTOPROC: Look for the JCLCheck runtime options file in the CA 7 init deck, and change option AU to NOAU.  

2. Add a SYSPROC DD statement to the CA 7 init deck.  The CA 7 started task must have READ access to all the procedure libraries that are allocated to SYSPROC DD.
