Unsupported Statements and Restrictions
You cannot use the following statements in the JCL scheduler portion
of the TP profile:
- Job entry control language (JECL) statements. These are the statements
associated with JES2 or JES3; for example:
//*FORMAT //*MAIN
If JES2 JECL statements are coded, they are detected as JCL errors. If JES3 JECL statements are coded, they are ignored and appear as comments.
- Internal reader control statements; for example:
/*EOF /*DEL
- Instream commands:
"// command " "// COMMAND '... command text ...' "
- The XMIT statement:
"// XMIT "
The XMIT JCL statement has no function in an APPC scheduling environment. If you code an XMIT statement, however, it must be syntactically correct to avoid JCL errors.
