Issue/Introduction

Is BLP processing required with COPYCAT?

 

Resolution

 

Copycat uses BLP processing when copying files. Be sure the JES2 class running allows BLP.

The JES2 parms member that are running on the machine for example may have have:


JOBCLASS(A) ACCT=NO, 
BLP=NO, 
COMMAND=IGNORE, 
IEFUJP=YES, 
IEFUSO=YES, 
* 
/* TAPE AND CART JOBS */ 
JOBCLASS(T) ACCT=NO, 
BLP=YES, 
COMMAND=IGNORE, 
HOLD=YES, 

* 
Based on this Class A does NOT  allow BLP.

But BLP processing is allowed within Class T.  This is the tape class.

 

Use the Jes2 class that allows BLP and re-run the job in that class. 

 

If you are seeing NL/SL mounts for these Copycat  jobs, check the Jes2 class
