You may want to create a JCL file that can be viewed, edited,
and submitted to the remote system.
You must first connect to the remote system and set the properties
required for JCL generation.
To generate JCL, follow these steps:
- On a source data set member, right-click and select Generate
JCL and one of the following menu options:
- For Compile
- Generates JCL for compiling the selected program.
- For Compile Link
- Generates JCL for compiling and linking the selected program.
- For Compile Link Go
- Generates JCL for compiling, linking, and executing the selected
program.
- On the JCL Data Set and Member Name window,
specify the job name, the data set where you want the JCL to go, and
the name of the source program.
- Click OK. Rational® Developer for System z® opens a message window
when JCL generation is complete. This message window includes Submit and Open buttons
that you can use to submit the generated JCL or open the JCL in a System z LPEX Editor session.
- To submit the JCL, click the Submit button.
- To open the generated JCL in a System z LPEX Editor session, click the Open button.
