NULLJCL=IGNORE|EOF

Specifies what JES2 input processing is to do when it encounters a null JCL card (// with no operands) while processing JCL cards. This operand has no effect on a // card that is used as the delimiter for instream data sets. Valid options are:

IGNORE: Does not process this as anything special and continues reading the current job.; This is normal JES2 behavior.; This is the default.
EOF: A null JCL card is treated as an end of file and the end of the JCL stream for the current job is recognized. However, this only applies if JES2 input processing is reading and processing JCL cards. If JES2 is in a "skipping for end of file" state, JES2 does not recognize any JCL or JECL cards and continues to ignore this card.

This parameter has MAS member scope and applies to all input sources.
