Issue/Introduction

Description:

Starting with XCOM r11.6 for z/OS, users may encounter message XCOMM1420E XCOMCNTL DD STATEMENT MISSING FROM JCL when performing TYPE=EXECUTE or TYPE=SCHEDULE transfers.

Solution:

Starting with XCOM r11.6 for z/OS, users may encounter message XCOMM1420E XCOMCNTL DD STATEMENT MISSING FROM JCL when performing TYPE=EXECUTE or TYPE=SCHEDULE transfers. The message will be encountered when the JCL for the transfer is missing the XCOMCNTL DD, but it will not terminate the job. It is intended to warn the user that they need to add the XCOMCNTL DD to their JCL so that the job can find the new CONFIG member that contains all of the XCOMDFLT parameters.

We have since then changed the error message to be a Warning vs an Error when you apply fix RO58447 XCOMM1420E ERROR MESSAGE SHOULD BE A WARNING MESSAGE.
