Error description
APAR Error Description: Rational Developer for System z 8.5.1.1 - RDz - When JOBCARD skeletal JCL member used for CARMA Endevor batch actions/requests, last line of JOBCARD suppressed from generated JCL. When customer has specified a default jobcard in their CRABCFG member (i.e. DEFAULT-JOBCARD = CRABJOBC), the last line of JCL specified in the DEFAULT-JOBCARD member is suppressed when JCL is generated. CARMA user will experience a JCL error if the last line in DEFAULT-JOBCARD is a 'continuation' of the JOBCARD for the Endevor batch action ('Submit as batch job' selected on Endevor request). Local Fix: (1) Add a comment JCL statement (//*) as last line/statement in DEFAULT-JOBCARD member OR (2) user can manually modify JOBCARD when presented the 'Batch Submit Preview' screen. Once JOBCARD is modified here, that modified JOBCARD will be used for subsequent Endevor batch requests for that CARMA user.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: 01.RDz users who access the Endevor * * repository using the IBM supplied RDz * * Endevor RAM and set up separate jobcards * * templates that are to be used with the * * JCL templates when performing Element * * actions in batch mode. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.When a default jobcard is specified * * in the CRABCFG DD dataset member, * * the last line of the jobcard is * * suppressed when the JCL is * * generated. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** 01.The RDz client is not picking up the last line of the jobcard that is sent by the Endevor RAM. Inserting a JCL comment line at the end of the Jobcard is a workaround. Or, the user can modify the Jobcard in the preview dialog.
Problem conclusion
01.The RDz Endevor RAM is being changed to insert a JCL comment line at the end of the jobcard so that if the RDz client drops the last line, the original default Jobcard that is presented in the preview dialog is what is expected.
