3.1 Defining Schedules<br />

3.1.4.3 What JCL Does <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> Submit <strong>for</strong> These <strong>Job</strong>s?<br />

JCL <strong>for</strong> jobs under <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> control can be manually submitted<br />

to the reader queue, but <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> can even automate that step<br />

<strong>for</strong> you. <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> can retrieve JCL directly from<br />

However, sometimes production JCL requires editing be<strong>for</strong>e it can be<br />

submitted. Two schedule fields tell <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> where to find the<br />

JCL to submit <strong>for</strong> jobs in that schedule: STAGE JCL and LIBRARY TYPE.<br />

<strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> first determines which library contains the JCL <strong>for</strong><br />

these jobs by checking the LIBRARY TYPE. Then <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong><br />

checks to see if this JCL requires editing. Since you can override a schedule's<br />

value <strong>for</strong> STAGE JCL at the job level, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> checks both<br />

schedule and job base records. If STAGE JCL = NO, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong><br />

knows it can submit the production JCL directly to the CPU. However, if<br />

STAGE JCL = YES, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> copies the production JCL into the<br />

staging library as soon as the job is selected. After that JCL has been edited<br />

and staging is complete, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> submits the edited JCL <strong>for</strong><br />

processing.<br />

In the case where the JCL <strong>for</strong> a specific job is stored in a <strong>CA</strong>-Panvalet or OWL<br />

library, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> will submit a batch job that is a library access<br />

job. This job will run in a partition and extract the actual job JCL from the<br />

library and submit this JCL to POWER to be run.<br />

3.1.4.4 Which CPU Should Control These <strong>Job</strong>s?<br />

The RUN ON SYSID field is used only in a multi-CPU environment. When<br />

specified within a schedule definition, the RUN ON SYSID field value<br />

designates a POWER SYSID that is then associated with the CPU that will<br />

control and submit the jobs within that schedule.<br />

Do not specify a RUN ON SYSID within a schedule definition if you have a<br />

<strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> Master/Slave, multi-CPU environment. This<br />

environment determines the controlling CPU from the <strong>CA</strong>IJGEN installation<br />

macro.<br />
