cassub: submit JCL to a JES region

Syntax

cassub parameter parameter . . 

This command can be used to submit JCL to either a native Enterprise Server or Enterprise Server for .NET JES region. However, only a sub-set of the command line parameters supported by native Enterprise Server are supported when used for job submission to an Enterprise Server for .NET JES region. The parameters supported by Enterprise Server for .NET are detailed below.

Parameters

-shost:port
URL of the JES region to connect to, where host is the name of the machine running the communications listener process and port is the MFBINP port associated with the region. This parameter must be specified. For example:
-slocalhost:9022
-jjobfile-name-by-content
Name of the file containing the JCL to be submitted. The contents of the file are sent to the JES region
-vversion
The version of the job control system to use, where version is one of the following values:
1
VSE/Power
2
JES2 (default)
3
JES3
-xjobfile-name-by-reference
Name of the file containing the JCL to be submitted. The file name is sent to the JES region.

N.B. this option should be used with care when the region is scaled-out across multiple machines as the file location may not be available to all machines

Examples

  1. Submit a JES2 job by content
    cassub.exe -slocalhost:9022 -jc:\mydir\myfile.jcl
  2. Submit a JES2 job by reference
    casout.exe -slocalhost:9022 -xc:\mydir\myfile.jcl
  3. Submit a VSE job by content
    cassub.exe -slocalhost:9022 -jc:\mydir\myvsefile.jcl -v1
