Batch reanalysis options
Many of the general options specified for an installation are also applicable to batch reanalysis. See Options for information about all available options and the different ways in which they can be specified.
Some of the options that you might want to consider using to control the batch reanalysis report are:
- Detail
- Specify this option if you want to adjust the level of detail given in the batch reanalysis report. See Detail for more detail.
- PrintInactiveCOBOL
- The PrintInactiveCOBOL option can be used to request that storage for inactive COBOL programs (programs that are not in the current save-area chain) is included in the reanalysis report.
- Options line for batch reanalysis
- Options that apply to all batch reanalysis jobs that you submit can
be specified here. These options, which are used in the PARM field of the
generated batch reanalysis job, take precedence over any options that are
specified through an options file (see
Options data set name
below).The option Detail(Long) is shown as an example on the options line in Sample Batch Reanalysis Options display.
If you need to specify more options than fit on this line, then use one of the options
Display panel to edit generated JCL
orEdit the options data set before reanalysis
instead (both are explained in the following).Options that are specified on the options line are saved in the user profile.
- Reanalysis report destination
- An optional specification of the reanalysis report destination. The specified option must be correct for adding to a DEST parameter on the generated SYSPRINT DD statement used for the report.
- Redisplay this panel before each reanalysis
- If this option is set to Y, then the Batch Reanalysis Options display
is shown each time a batch reanalysis is requested, prior to generating the
JCL stream.
Make your changes. Then press PF3 (to continue with the current options) or PF12 (to undo any changes made). What happens next depends on the
Display panel to edit generated JCL
option below.If this option is set to N, then the Batch Reanalysis Options display is not shown.
- Display panel to edit generated JCL
- If this option is set to Y, then you are presented with an ISPF EDIT display screen of the JCL
stream generated by Fault Analyzer as the example shown in
Sample batch reanalysis JCL stream EDIT.
Make your changes. Then issue the SUBMIT command to execute the job. Then enter the EXIT (PF3) or CANCEL (PF12) command to return to the Fault Entry List display.
For more information about the use of this option, see Data sets used for batch reanalysis.
If this option is set to N, then the generated JCL stream is submitted automatically without first displaying the JCL EDIT screen.
- Job card style
- A single character (P or S) that controls the style of job card specification that follows:
- If P is specified (the default), then a Job Card Parameters section, as shown in Sample Batch Reanalysis Options display follows the General Options section after the Enter key is pressed.
- If S is specified, then a Job Card Statements section follows the General Options
section after the Enter key is pressed.
This would alter the display from that shown in Sample Batch Reanalysis Options display to the following:
Whichever style of job card specification is selected with this option determines the method used when generating the job card for all batch reanalysis jobs.
- Job name suffix
- This suffix is the character that is appended to your user ID to form the job name that is used
for the generated batch reanalysis JCL stream. The default is A.
If the user ID is eight characters in length, it is truncated to seven characters before the suffix is appended.
- Job class
- This job class is the job class that is used on the CLASS parameter of the generated JOB card. The default is A.
- Job notify
- If this field is set to Y, then a NOTIFY=userid parameter is added to the generated JOB card. If it is set to N, then no NOTIFY parameter is added. The default is Y.
- Job time minutes
- This value is the number of minutes that are used on the TIME parameter of the JOB card. The valid range is 1 - 30. The default is 10.
- Message class
- This class is the message class that is used on the MSGCLASS parameter of the generated JOB card. The default is X.
- Region megabytes
- This value is the value that is used on the REGION parameter of the generated JOB card. The valid range is 0 - 2047. The default is 0.
- Accounting info
- Anything specified in this field is used as accounting information on the generated JOB card. The default is not to provide any accounting info.
- Options data set name
- This field can optionally specify the name of a PDS or PDSE data set in which a member (see
Options member name
) contains Fault Analyzer options. The data set and member name are used as the IDIOPTS user options file. This data set can, for example, be used if more options than fit on the options line at the top of this display are required.Note:- The options data set is only used if the
Use this data set during reanalysis
option is set to Y. - Options that are specified on the options line take precedence over options specified in this data set.
- The options data set is only used if the
- Options member name
- This name is the member name of the data set specified in
Options data set name
. - Use this data set during reanalysis
- If this option is set to Y, then the data set and member name specified above are used by Fault Analyzer during the batch reanalysis. If it is set to N, then the data set and member name are not used.
- Edit the options data set before reanalysis
- If this field is set to Y, then an ISPF EDIT display screen of the member in
the options data set specified above is presented prior to generating the batch
reanalysis JCL stream. An example is shown in Sample options file EDIT for batch reanalysis.
Change the options data set (if you wish). Then enter the EXIT command (usually mapped to PF3).
