Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Introduction

This suite of programs will scan JCL members and extract file information based on the IDCAMS or DD statements. The file information will be written to a sequential file. This capability and the information it provides is quite useful when migrating a batch application and data from a Mainframe System to a Windows System using Micro Focus technologies.

The sequential file created by this suite of programs is in the format that is required to do a batch update to the File Properties Repository (a Micro Focus Key-Sequenced-Data-Set or Indexed File). For more information about how to do this refer to the File Properties and Repository Management document.

The source code, data sets and documentation are provided in a single zipped file called JCSCAN01.ZIP. This zipped file may be downloaded from the SimoTime Web site. This example illustrates the following functions.

Item Description
1 Create a list of Source Members (JCL, PROC's and/or Parameter Files) to be scanned.
2 Scan the Source Members and create a record sequential file of file properties extracted from DD statements and Delete/Define statements used by IDCAMS.
3 Scan the Source Members (JCL, PROC and PARMCARD) and create a record sequential file of application properties extracted from EXEC statements and "RUN PROG(programName) statements used in SYSTSIN by IKJEFT01.
4 Copy/Repro JCL members and change the use of the ++INCLUDE to the standard ZOS JCL INCLUDE with a JCLLIB Statement.
  Functions Provided in this Suite of Programs

We have made a significant effort to ensure the documents and software technologies are correct and accurate. We reserve the right to make changes without notice at any time. The function delivered in this version is based upon the enhancement requests from a specific group of users. The intent is to provide changes as the need arises and in a timeframe that is dependent upon the availability of resources.

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Quick Start

This section describes the process for scanning JCL Members, PROC's and/or Parameter Control Cards to extract file information from DD statements and the DEFINE statements of IDCAMS.

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Create the List of Member Names

This job (JCSCANE1.CMD) is a three step job. The 1st step will do housekeeping to prepare the environment. The second step will delete any files left over from a previous run. The third step will create an ASCII/Text file containing a list of member names to be scanned.

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Scan Source Code for File Information

This job (JCSCANE2.cmd) is a three step job. The 1st step will do housekeeping to prepare the environment. The second step will delete any files left over from a previous run. The third step will scan the source members based on the list of member names and create a record sequential file containing information extracted from DD statements and DEFINE statements for IDCAMS.

C:\SimoSam1\LOADLIB>JCSCANE2

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section File Properties Repository Management

Once the File Information has been obtained from the JCL Scan the record sequential file is in a format that will feed the File Properties Repository Management System. Refer to the Catalog Population for Micro Focus and the File Properties Repository Management provided in separate documents.

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Record Structure, File Repository

The following COBOL copy file (FPMASTB1.cpy) shows the record layout for the record sequential (RSEQ) file that is used to do a batch update of the File Properties Repository.

Table of Contents Previous Section Next Section Company Overview

SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.

Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.

Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.

Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
