Skeleton used to start the HCD agent

There is a sample of skeleton CBDQAJSK provided in SYS1.PROCLIB. The HCD dispatcher uses this sample job to build up a job, which is submitted to start the HCD agent.

You can adapt this skeleton according to your installation needs. You can specify accounting information in the job card of the skeleton, if your installation requires accounting information. If your installation requires accounting information, and there is no accounting information specified in the skeleton, each HCM user must provide this information in the EEQHCM.INI file. For all other substitutable parameters, the HCD dispatcher provides default values, for example, &SYSUID..HCD.PROFILE and &SYSUID..HCM.TRACE as data set names for the HCD profile and the HCD trace data set for remote HCD sessions.

If you specify values for substitutable parameters, then these values are used and not the default values or values specified in the HCM user’s EEQHCM.INI file, for example, an increased REGION size for the HCD agent.

Always check, whether you must adapt this skeleton for your environment regarding the JOBPARM SYSAFF parameter for JES2 or MAIN SYSTEM parameter for JES3. The job must be executed on the system with the system name specified during HCD client logging to the HCD dispatcher.

Furthermore, an HCM user can take this skeleton, make a copy of it, and specify values for personal needs. To use this private copy, the HCM user needs an entry in the EEQHCM.INI file to tell the HCD dispatcher not to use the default skeleton, but the user-specified skeleton.
