New Day Procedure

A single New Day procedure is provided. Its default name is CTMTDAY (the name can be changed). This procedure must have wide authorization for accessing tables and jobs.

User Daily Jobs

The following sample User Daily jobs are provided:

• DAILYSYS - Contains sample JCL for scheduling system jobs.
• DAILYPRD - Contains sample JCL for scheduling production jobs.

These sample User Daily jobs are defined in table MAINDAY in the SCHEDULE Library. These jobs activate User Daily procedure CTMDAILY, which is responsible for ordering the production jobs.

It is generally advisable to use these sample User Daily jobs to create separate User Daily jobs according to department (or other functional entity), and according to authorization. For more information, see Implementing New Day Processing.

Maintenance Jobs

The following maintenance jobs are provided:

• IOACLCND - Activates utility IOACLCND, which cleans the IOA Conditions file.

  IOACLCND does not delete conditions with a date reference of STAT.

• IOALDNRS - Activates utility IOALDNRS, which creates and loads the Manual Conditions file. (This utility is normally run after all User Daily jobs have executed.)
• CTMJSA - Activates utility CTMJSA that accumulates and updates the Statistics file.

These maintenance jobs are defined in table MAINDAY in the SCHEDULE library. For a description of utilities IOALDNRS and IOACLCND, see the INCONTROL for z/OS Utilities Guide.

Table: MAINDAY

A table called MAINDAY is provided in the SCHEDULE library. This table contains User Daily jobs DAILYSYS and DAILYPRD and maintenance jobs IOACLCND and IOALDNRS.

Date Control Records

The following Date Control records (members) are supplied in the Control‑M PARM library:

• DATEREC - Defined for New Day procedure CTMTDAY.
• DATERECU - Sample Date Control record for User Daily jobs.

Called Programs

The New Day procedure and User Daily jobs call programs that perform various steps of New Day processing (checking the Date Control record, selecting job orders, and so on). For a description of these programs, see Programs Called During New Day Processing.
