You can use Rational® Developer to generate the Job Control Language
(JCL) for an MFS file, either from an existing PDS on the z/OS® host or
an MVS™ subproject.
To create the JCL for an MFS file, complete the following steps:
- Select the .mfs format definition file name.
- Right-click, and select Properties from the menu.
- In the MFS Settings dialog, specify the destination library. Set the other
options as you want.
- Select the .mfs format definition file name.
- From the pop-up menu, select .
- Specify the target PDS for the generated JCL and the member name. You
can also set a different job name.
- Click OK to complete the generation process.
If
the member name already exists, you are prompted to overwrite the member.
If
the target PDS does not exist, an error message is returned.
You can
use the JES subsystem to track the generated job.
To submit the JCL, complete the following steps:
- Select the generated JCL file name in the PDS.
- From the pop-up menu, select Properties. Set the
values that you want.
- Select the JCL file name.
- From the pop-up menu, select Submit.
You can use the JES subsystem to track the process.
