Issue/Introduction

When using the Dataquery for Datacom DQLIBRMT batch utility to add new JCL members, the utility stops moving data lines at the first instance of the literal "/*" (slash asterisk)..

It should move the "/*" and continue reading and processing to the override delimiter specified in the utility JCL.                                                                     

Environment

Z/OS

Dataquery 15.1 

Resolution

Use the STARTJCL and ENDJCL control statements introduced in PTF RO92891

  1. Place the STARTJCL statement before the ADD statement for the JCL member.
  2. Place the ENDJCL statement after the JCL content.

Example:

//SYSIN    DD  DATA,DLM=$$ 

SIGN/ON userid PASSWORD password
STARTJCL
ADD NAME=xxxxx,MEMBER=JCL1,TYPE=JCL
//JOB1 JOB ...
.
.
.
/*JOBPARM ...

ENDJCL
