Provides step-by-step instructions to create and configure a JES-enabled
enterprise server region that runs JCL jobs.
Create the ESJCL
enterprise server region
- In
Eclipse, open the
Server Explorer view.
If it is hidden, display it by choosing
Window > Show View > Server Explorer.
- Right-click
Local [localhost:86], and click
New > Enterprise Server.
Tip: If you are not currently signed on to the current enterprise server, the
Enterprise Server Sign On dialog box appears: click
OK to sign on as the SYSAD user. (Alternatively, click
Use specific server credentials, then enter a valid username and password.)
The
New Enterprise Server dialog box appears.
- Type
ESJCL into the
Name field.
- Click the browse button next to the
Template field, and browse to the location of the
Enterprise Developer server templates, which is
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\etc\ServerTemplates by default.
- Select
JCLTemplate.xml, and click
Open.
- On the
Associate with projects list, check
JCLDEMO.
- Click
Finish.
In the
Server Explorer view, expand
Local [localhost:86] to check to see that the server has been added. By using the template, the server already has the necessary options selected
for MSS enablement.
Define a batch initiator SEP
The JCL template that you used to create the ESJCL
enterprise server region includes a default initiator named INITALL. You need to modify INITALL for your application.
To modify INITALL to be a class B initiator that starts automatically:
- In the
Server Explorer, right-click
Local [localhost:86]; then click
Open Administration Page.
- On the Enterprise Server Administration
Home page, click
Edit next to
ESJCL.
- Select the
Server,
Properties,
MSS,
JES, and
Initiators tabs.
- Click
Edit on the row for
INITALL and change the initiator as follows:
