Running JCL jobs held on the enterprise server machine

When you are accessing an enterprise server session remotely, by default, ESMAC submits JCL jobs held on the machine running the web browser. If you are using a ESMAC and web browser to connect to a remote machine and you want to submit JCL that is only visible to the remote machine, then you will need to override the default behavior.

To access files from the machine running the Enterprise Server, configure the following environment variable:

CASRDO44_NEWSUB=OFF

See Environment Variables for details.

With this environment variable configured, from a remote machine, you can browse for and run JCL jobs located on the machine running the Enterprise Server session.

It is important to note that this behavior will only function if you are using a browser that allows an HTML element of TYPE=FILE to be used as an entry field for a filename, as opposed to the actual file being submitted as part of a MIME multi-part form.

(Firefox V3.0 and later and IE8 and later no longer allow this behavior.
