Love your sense of humor.

I'm guessing that mysterious number all the way to the right has nothing to do 
with the number of JCL statements.

I would love to show you the JCL I used to produce this, but I would have to 
eliminate everyone on this list.

Thank you.

I forgot to mention that I did run this with TYPRUN=SCAN and get the same 
message.

And to be sure, I have been running this JOB off an for the past month.

I have gotten file not found. That was the first thing I checked, using "F 
FOUND" and that typically shows me the missing DSN.

Not on/with this failure.

And submitting it again -- the suffixing number of the error is different, and 
is greater than the number of JCL statements in this JOB. So that doesn't seem 
related.

Regards,
Steve Thompson

    IEFC452I text - JOB NOT RUN - JCL ERROR

     Explanation

     Depending on the message text, one of the following:

     JOBFAIL

        The error was detected on a JOB statement and the job name is not
         known.

     INVALID
         The system detected an error in a JOB or other JCL statement, and
         the job name (the label on the JOB statement) is invalid.

     jobname
         The system detected an error in a JCL statement, or the job was
         cancelled while on the input queue.

     procstep
         The procedure was specified in the first operand of a START command.
         In this case, either the procedure was not found in SYS1.PROCLIB or,
         if found, the procedure had an error in a JCL statement. Message
         IEE122I or IEE132I will always follow this message.

     The error message appears in the SYSOUT data set.

     This message can also be issued for various environmental errors,
     such as an error occurring while trying to read a record from the
     JCL text data set or an I/O error occurring while trying to get
     procedure statements.

     System action

     If the operator cancelled the job, all steps of the job, beginning
     with the step currently being processed, will be ended. Otherwise,
     the job will not be initiated; no steps will be processed. If
     procstep appears, the START command will not be run.

     Operator response

     If the job name appears, none. If procstep appears, either reenter
     the START command with the correct procedure name, or, if the
     procedure name is correct, notify the application programmer.

     Programmer response

     Check the procedure for errors.

Hi all, got a weird one.

I am running the same JOB over and over processing different files.
All that changes is the suffix on an output DSN that identifies the
DATA cycle of this execution, and the SORTIN DD/DSN contents (some
have a single file some have up to 15 files). Data may be on disk or
tape. TPM holds the job until HSM restore completes if that is why
the data is on tape.

I would love to show you the JCL, but I am NOT allowed. Suffice to
say security controls.

I have taken the JOB cards off another one of these JOBs that ran
successfully and replaced the JOB card (one from a prior submission
of this specific JOB).

And I still get this error. The last thing it says is 748.
Since I don't have 700 JCL statements, that isn't the problem.
Besides this is supposedly a JOB card error!!

BTW, sometimes the files I have been told to pick disappear before I
can get the JCL updated and submitted, so I do get file not found
errors. But this is not the issue here.

I have a copy of the full tech library for the Version of z/OS just
prior to 3.1 (can't remember the V/R). And it is not helping me with
this.
