PROC(PROC00) is no longer shown after maintenance

• JCLCheck Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

When the AUTOPROC runtime option is enabled, JCLCheck allocates the PROC runtime option to the first JES2 proclib DD name (usually PROC00), which is then reflected as PROC(PROC00) in the list of Options in Effect.  After applying JCLCheck maintenance, the list now displays PROC(Jxxxxxxx) instead.

Resolution

PTF LU18393 changes how AUTOPROC allocates the JES2 proclibs.  Instead of using DDname PROCxx, a unique DDname is used to avoid a timing issue which resulted in multiple subtasks allocating the same DDname.

The unique DD name is Jxxxxxxx where xxxxxxx represents the last 7 digits of milliseconds.

This is an internal change and has no effect to how AUTOPROC functions. 

Note: PTF LU18393 is superseded by LU19295.
