Issue/Introduction
Description:
When TPX Batch SYSIN looks correct yet the job is failing with these errors, check that the JCL does not have numbers in columns 72-80.
Solution:
TPX batch is flexible in allowing your batch command input to be spread over several input lines.
If your JCL member has NUMBER ON, the numbers in columns 72-80 will be read in as part of the SYSIN commands and fail with errors.
For example:
This batch job looks OK
//BATCHADM EXEC TPX,VNODE='*BATCH*'
//EXTFIL1 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(1,1)),DISP=(MOD)
//RPTFIL1 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
EXTRACT GIVING(EXTFIL1) PROFILE AND MATCHING SESSIONS
(PENTOPTI(Y))
SET RTITLE1 ' Profile SessionID ApplID Invisible '
SET RTITLE2 ' ======== ========= ======== ========= '
REPORT GIVING(RPTFIL1) USING(EXTFIL1)
((' &PIDXNAME' ' &PENTUSER' ' &PENTAPPL' ' &PENTOPTI' ))
