Run a JCL Job

Now that your Fileshare server server1 and your enterprise server region FSDEMO are both running, we will run a simple JCL jobstream to verify that new datasets are created correctly and that everything is working.

1. Create an iefbr14.jcl file in the fsdir directory.
2. Open the file in a text editor and copy the code below in it:

   //DMFBR14  JOB 'DMFBR14',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A
   //STEP1    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
   //SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
   //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
   //DD1      DD DSN='DMF.TEST.DSN',DISP=(MOD,DELETE)
   //DD2      DD DSN='DMF.TEST.DSN2',DISP=(MOD,DELETE)
   //*

3. On the ESCWA Administration page, click JES > Control, drag the file you just created to the area in the Submit JCL to JES section, and then click Submit.

   A message box is displayed confirming that the job has been submitted.

4. Within the Start JES Initiators and Printers section, type A in the Classes field and then click Start.

   The JCL job now runs.

5. Click JES > Spool to display the JES Output Queue, and then click the (View) icon to the right of the job to display its details.

   

6. Click (View) to the right of the entry shown in DD Entries.

   The joblog is displayed. You can see the Fileshare server name ($$SERVER1) used when processing the dataset.

   
   
   

This ends the walkthrough.
