Centralized scripts

For a job running on a fault-tolerant workstation to use a centralized script, you must define that script in a job definition member of the JOBLIB as you would for a normal job JCL.

In addition, for that same job, you can also use the following statements in a job definition member of the SCRPTLIB:
  • VARSUB
  • JOBUSR
  • INTRACTV
  • RCCONDSUC
Note that while the VARSUB statement of the JOBLIB is used when the plan is submitted, the VARSUB statement of the SCRPTLIB takes effect while the plan is running.

With centralized scripts you can perform variable substitution, automatic recovery, JCL editing, and job setup (as for standard non-fault-tolerant workstation jobs). You can also run the ARC command and use the job-submit exit (EQQUX001).
