Setting up standard JCL

You can set up standard JCL for the jobs that must be run (such as the utility jobs) as part of establishing procedures for your operations people.

Using DBRC can greatly assist you in this area, even though having completely canned JCL is not possible. For example, the MTO must supply the required log data sets when running the Database Batch Backout utility. If you use DBRC for recovery control, you may only have to set up JCL for DBRC itself.
