Initialization

In the initialization step, the IOA and basic environment for Control-M JCL Verify is created.

This step includes:

• setting the Control-M JCL Verify functionality by specifying
  • the installation parameters
  • the parameters supplied during runtime
• initializing the security
• collecting resources that are required for JCL verification

  Since the required resources are common for all Control-M JCL Verify users, JCL verification performance is usually significantly increased

  1. by creating the Control-M JCL Verify Shared Object and loading the site standards rules to the common area (see Improving performance)
  2. identifying JES2 PROCLIBs by
     1. determining whether PROCLIBs defined in JES are in use
     2. determining whether mandatory PROCLIBs are in use
     3. checking CTJPRC for predefined PROCLIBs. For more details on the CTJPRC member, see CTJPRC format.

     If the mandatory JES2 PROCLIBs DD statements do not exist, the Control-M JCL Verify initialization will fail, and the verification will be stopped.

  3. loading site related information into the shared objects
