Tuesday TIP: CA InterTest and SymDump CICS R 9.1 IN25OPTS customization JCL changes 

Dec 16, 2014 06:16 PM

Starting in release 9.1 of CA InterTest and SymDump CICS there are new JCL requirements when customizing the IN25OPTS options table parameters. The IN25OPTS  assembly SYSLIB step points to different PDS library and the load module is no longer linked with an alias base on CICS level. In addition the target SYSLMOD in the link step  is now  called  HLQ.CABALOAD.

 

In release 8.5 and assembly SYSLIB pointed to dataset  CAIOPTN

//SYSLIB        DD  DSN=HLQ.CAIOPTN,DISP=SHR

 

In release 9.1 and assembly SYSLIB points to dataset  CABAMAC

//SYSLIB         DD  DSN=HLQ.CABAMAC,DISP=SHR

 

In release 8.5 for CICS 4.2 the IN25OPTS load module was linked with the following alias

 

//SYSIN   DD  *

        ENTRY IN25OPTS

        ALIAS IN25OPTS

       NAME  IN67OPTS(R)

 

And the SYSLMOD usually was the CACICS67 load library

 

//SYSLMOD  DD  DSN=HLQ.CACICS67,DISP=SHR

 

In release 9.1 there is no longer an alias and the SYSLMOD has changed CABALOAD

 

//SYSIN   DD  *

      ENTRY IN25OPTS

      NAME  IN25OPTS(R)

//

 

//SYSLMOD  DD  DSN=HLQ.CABALOAD,DISP=SHR

 

Sample JCL can be found in the release 9.1 Installation Guide chapter Options for both products.
