OS/390 MVS JCL Introduction
This course provides detailed information about Job Control Language (JCL) and methods for coding it to perform data processing jobs in an MVS environment. The course reviews the overall structure and purpose of JCL and introduces the three main JCL statements. The course then covers the coding of the JOB and the Execute (EXEC) statements in detail. It also describes how to analyze job output listings, and discusses libraries and conditional processing.
MVS JCL Introduction training covers such topics as:
Introduction to JCL
Coding JOB Statements
Coding EXEC Statements
Coding DD Statements
Conditional Processing
This course is designed as an introductory JCL programming course for system
programmers, operators and application programmers
