z/VSE Skeletons and REXX/VSE Procedures

As the name implies, skeletons are usually incomplete jobs that you cannot immediately submit for execution. Instead, they contain parameters and variables that you must specify to create jobs for your specific system. They also contain comments that describe JCL statements and variables and explain how you make the necessary changes.

To use a skeleton, you should copy it from its original VSE/ICCF library into a VSE/ICCF library that you own. You can then edit the copy and make the necessary changes.

This appendix also includes a list of REXX/VSE procedures you can use.
