Resolution

InterTest Batch includes the new JCLCheck Common Component 12.0 and usually this error occurs if the JCLCheck load library dataset is not correctly authorized. Here what it is necessary to verify: 

1. Execute TSO ISRDDN LOAD CAZ2RLSE command when in TSO ISPF Intertest menu and verify that the JCLCheck Common library is in an APF  authorized libraries chain.
2. Verify that the CAZ2CTSO entry is added to the AUTHTSF table of IKJTSO00.

The InterTest Batch installation considerations about JCLCheck can be found in the InterTest Batch Installation Guide at the following link:
