About this task
You can create started task JCL and procedure members
with Create IBM AD Connect Started Task JCL and Procedure
panels. All the parameters that are used on the panels are automatically saved in your TSO user ID
ISPF profile.
Procedure
- Go to the Started Task JCL/PROC creation Main Menu
panel.
- Run the following
command:
TSO EX’IAYV5103.SAMP.JCL(IAYCONM0)’
The
Configuration Main Menu panel is displayed. You can replace
IAYV5103.SAMP.JCL
with
<site-specific-HLQ>.SAMP.JCL. This
<site-specific-HLQ>.SAMP.JCL library must have the IAYCONM0 member from
IBM® AD Connect for
Mainframe.
- On the Configuration Main Menu panel, select option
2.
To end the application, select option X.
- After the Started Task JCL/PROC creation Main Menu
panel is opened, provide or verify the parameters, and then press Enter.
Note: You must have privileges to run commands TSO NETSTAT
and
Display PROG,APF
.
- Temporary PDSE/PDS
- The name of a temporary PDSE or PDS library. By default, a value is provided in this field. You
can modify the value as needed. If the specified library exists, it will be used. Otherwise, the
library will be created.
- JCL member
name
- The name of the JCL member to be stored
in the specified temporary PDSE or PDS library.
- PROC member name
- The name of the procedure member to be stored in the specified temporary PDSE or PDS
library.
- AD system wide Datasets
HLQs
- The high-level qualifiers of all the data sets in IBM AD Connect for
Mainframe. By default, a value is provided in this field. You
can modify the value as needed.
- After the following panel is opened, provide or verify the parameters, and then press
Enter.

- TCPIP address space name (DISPLAY ONLY)
- The site-specific TCPIP address space name. This value is retrieved from
the
TSO NETSTAT HOME
command response.
- TCP/IP port#
- The TCP/IP port number. The value must be a five-digit number, with
leading zeros if required. Enter a port number directly, or select a port from the list of available
ports in your system.
To retrieve the list of available ports, press F4. Enter a forward slash (/)
in the line of the port that you want to select, and then press Enter.
- Host code page
- The CCSID of the host code page. Select a CCSID
value from the CCSID list of available host code pages in your system.
To
retrieve the
CCSID list of available host code pages, press F5. Enter a
forward slash (/) in front of the
CCSID that you want to select, and then
press Enter.
- Client code page
- The CCSID of the client code page. Select a CCSID value from the CCSID list of available client code pages in your
system.
To retrieve the
CCSID list of available client code pages, press
F6. Enter a forward slash (/) in front of the
CCSID that you want to select,
and then press Enter.
- After the following panel is opened, provide or verify the parameters, and then press
Enter.

- Max# of Tasks
- The maximum number of tasks. The value must be a number in the range 1 - 20.
- REXX Integration
- To run CICS® CSD retrieve in the batch mode, enter

.
- Debug mode
- The following debug modes are available:
Value |
Debug mode |
Y |
Debug on UTC |
N |
Disable debugging |
L |
Debug on local time |
S |
Debug on short UTC |
T |
Debug on short local time |
- Get APF list?
- The following values are supported:
Value |
Explanation |
Y |
Retrieve a name list of the subsystem APF libraries that will be used in the STEPLIB
library of the started task. |
N |
Do not retrieve a name list of the subsystem APF libraries that will be used in the STEPLIB
library of the started task. |
L |
Enter this value if the subsystem APF libraries are set up in linklist. The STEPLIB library
is not required. |
- Create datasets?
- To create data sets for ChangeMan, Adabas, Natural, or TWS subsystems, enter
Y
. Otherwise, enter N
.
- Please select Subsystems
- Select one or more subsystems that you want to create data sets for by entering a forward slash
(/).
- After the following panel is opened, select or verify the APF libraries for the
subsystems. After an APF library is selected for each subsystem, press Enter.
If multiple versions of APF libraries exist in a subsystem,
*** HIT [ENTER] TO SELECT
is displayed. After you press Enter, the
Available APF
libraries for Subsystem panel is displayed. The following image shows an example of the
available APF libraries for the
IMS subsystem. Enter a
forward slash (/) in the line of the load library that you want to select, and then press Enter. To
select the first load library, you can press Enter directly.
Results
The Started Task JCL/PROC
creation Main Menu is displayed. Message IAYC001G, which indicates that the JCL and procedure members are created, is shown on the
panel.
If Y
is entered in the
Create datasets? field, Subsystems Datasets Allocation
panels are first displayed. For more information about creating data sets with Subsystems
Datasets Allocation panels, see topic Creating Data Sets with Subsystems Datasets Allocation Panels.
What to do next
To edit the created JCL
and procedure members, use ISPF edit commands. To go back to the Configuration Main
Menu panel, press F3.
