Report Decollating Missions: Generic
This chapter includes the following topics:
Managing MSGCLASS Job Output
The decollating mission retrieves output from the system spool, creates compressed output datasets, and establishes ownership of the output (reports).
There are two types of decollating missions:
-
A generic decollating mission that contains all instructions required for Control-D to process a selected group of output from one or more predefined classes (meaning, one generic decollating mission for one or more jobs). A good example of a generic decollating mission is the MSGCLASS output of all production jobs.
-
A job decollating mission that contains all instructions required for Control-D to process one job name (meaning, one job decollating mission per job).
Define report decollating mission parameters only once for each job or group of jobs. Control-D uses these parameters for numerous executions of the same decollating mission. You can modify the parameters at any time, as needed.
Begin
From the IOA Primary Option menu, do the following:
-
From the IOA Primary Option menu, select option R and press Enter. The Report Decollating Mission Definition entry panel is displayed.

FILL IN REPORT DEFINITION. CMDS: EDIT, SCHED, SHPF, PATH 13.53.36This is a predefined generic decollating mission definition. At this stage you only need to be concerned with a few of the parameter fields on the screen. In general, Control-D allows you to view all the parameters for each mission in one screen; however, only a few parameters are used in a typical mission.
Note the following fields:
Table 1 Decollation Mission Parameters
Parameter
Description
JOBNAME
* (asterisk) selects any jobname. All jobs are selected.
GENERIC
Y indicates a generic decollating mission. The mission selects the non-held output from the specified class (as described in the ON CLASS parameter in this table), and decollates it.
ON CLASS
Specifies the generic class to process. During the installation process, one to eight generic classes are defined.
PRINT/CDAM PARMS
= ALLOCOPT=JOBSDSN1
Use the ALLOCOPT parameter to improve Control-D performance according to the type of output processed. For more information, see the CDAM chapter in the Control-D and Control-V User Guide. The optimum parameter for MSGCLASS generic processing is JOBSDSN1.
WHEN LINE STRING
Use the WHEN parameter to identify each page in a report. Because MSGCLASS output is not identified by page, leave this field blank for this example.
DO After output is selected, DO statements instruct Control-D what to do with the output. You can specify any number of DO statements. In this example:
-
DO NAME=PRODUCTION JCL
All output processed from the specified class is named PRODUCTION JCL in Control-D.
-
DO USER=PRODCNTL
All output processed from the specified class is directed (not necessarily printed) to the recipient PRODCNTL.
-
DO BACKUP=BKP0007D
All output processed from the specified class is backed up to tape or cartridge and retained for a week. For more information about backup, see Backup and Restoring.
Additional empty DO, WHEN, and ON clauses appear after the set of filled-in DO lines. These additional clauses are not required for this decollating mission, but they are available if you want to add additional criteria later.
The set of empty DO, WHEN, and ON clauses is created each time you fill-in and enter a new set of DO, WHEN, and ON clauses.
-
-
When you define scheduling criteria for the decollating mission for the first time, these scheduling criteria are usually hidden, and they are seldom used. Display them as follows:
-
Position the cursor in the COMMAND field.
-
Type SCHED and press Enter.

To hide the scheduling criteria again do the following:
-
Position the cursor in the COMMAND field.
-
Type SCHED and press Enter. The scheduling criteria are hidden again.
-
-
Press PF03/PF15. You are returned to the Category list.
-
Press PF03/PF15 once again. If any modifications were made to the generic decollating mission, the Exit Option window is displayed.
Type N in the SAVE field and press Enter.
N stands for NO SAVE, so that the sample generic decollating mission required for the tutotial is not accidentally changed.
-
Press PF03/PF15 twice to return to the IOA Primary Option menu.
A list of all decollating missions used in the Walkthrough is displayed in the Job List screen.
PRODJCL, a generic decollating mission, is the first decollating mission discussed.
The statistics accompanying each mission name may or may not be displayed, depending on the site-defined default.
Each decollating mission has one or more categories. In this example, PRODJCL has one category. For more information about categories, see the Control-D and Control-V User Guide.
Activating a Decollating Mission Manually
Decollating missions defined in a library are activated by "ordering" them. In Control-D, missions are ordered in two ways:
-
Automatic Ordering: Use automatic orders for most regularly scheduled processing. All missions defined for automatic processing are "ordered" automatically. For more information, see Setting Up Automatic Orders of Missions.
-
Manual Ordering: Use manual orders for missions that cannot be planned in advance, and for mission testing.
Order the decollating mission for the Walkthrough manually since it was not planned in advance.
Begin
-
From the IOA Primary Option menu, select option R and press Enter.

Notice the field on the far right side of the third line on the screen. UP indicates that the Control-D Monitor is currently active. DOWN indicates that the Control-D Monitor is currently not active.
The Control-D Online Facility is not dependent on the Control-D Monitor being active.
When the Control-D monitor is brought up, Generic Classes processing is automatically activated. You may need to activate Generic Classes processing manually after Control-D is brought up. Use caution if you manually activate the Generic option when it has not been activated automatically.
To manually automate Generic Classes processing, issue operator command:
F CONTROLD,STARTGEN
The following message is displayed on the operator console from which the modify command was issued:
CTD139I GENERIC JOB DECOLLATION IS ACTIVE ON CLASSES (class-list)
To deactivate Generic Classes processing, issue operator command:
F CONTROLD,STOPGEN
The last scrollable line in the screen is where the decollating mission that you ordered in the previous exercise is displayed. Other missions in the list are used in later sections of the Getting Started Guide.
The status of the newly ordered decollating mission is GENERIC WAITING FOR JOB. This indicates that Control-D is waiting for a non-held job output to appear in the output class specified in the ON CLASS statement of the decollating mission.
-
Press Enter periodically to display status changes. If the status remains unchanged for more than a few seconds (maximum thirty), there is no non-held output in the generic class on spool.
-
For purposes of this tutorial, release a few MSGCLASS outputs to this class (using FLASHER, SDSF or any other spool display facility installed at your data center). When the decollating mission is processing the output of a job, its status changes to GENERIC DECOLLATING and the job name and job ID are also displayed.
The status may change to ENDED OK and to other statuses during operation. When the decollating mission returns to WAITING FOR JOB status, there is no more non-held output in the generic output class on spool.
-
-
Position the cursor to the left of the decollating mission.
-
Type L and press Enter. The Log Messages screen is displayed.

The User Reports entry panel is the main end-user (recipient) interface to Control-D information. Many facilities are provided under the User Reports screens. These are explained in depth in Report Decollating Missions: Job.
This screen list of all jobs decollated by the decollating mission appears on the screen.
Notice the REMARK field. This field indicates the highest condition code or abend of the job. It is possible to specify selection criteria according to the REMARK. A common use of this option is to select all jobs that have ended NOTOK by specifying NOTOK in the REMARK field of the Show Option window as accessed from the User Reports entry panel.
If you need more information on any of the fields on the screen, refer to the Control-D and Control-V User Guide or use the HELP key (PF01/PF13).
Editing MSGCLASS Output
At this stage, you are introduced to report editing, an advanced feature of Control-D. This exercise illustrates some advantages of using rulers (sets of screen editing rules) on MSGCLASS output. In a later section additional uses for rulers and how to define them are discussed.
Production personnel spend much time examining MSGCLASS output for error messages (for example, condition codes, abend codes, JCL errors, NOT CATLGD 2, and so on). Control-D rulers can make this task easier.
Begin
-
To view a MSGCLASS output, you now "activate" a previously defined ruler:
-
Position the cursor in the COMMAND field.
-
Type RULER $JOBCHK and press Enter. The original MSGCLASS output is displayed with a ruler activated. It displays messages and strings that are relevant to production personnel.

To return to the previous Active List screen, press PF03/PF15.
Immediate Printing
There are two ways to print in Control-D:
-
Deferred Printing: Output is predefined by a printing mission to print in bundles.
-
Immediate Printing: Upon request of a user, the Control-D Online facility immediately prints reports, or parts of reports.
This exercise illustrates how to perform immediate printing.
Begin
-
On the Active List screen, position the cursor to the left of the MSGCLASS output you decide to print.
-
