BMC Mainframe: z/OS JCL Workshop Part 2 - Advanced Functions & Utilities including ICETOOL
The course is developed and delivered by © RSM Technology.
This course builds on the skills taught in the definitive introductory JCL course - z/OS JCL Workshop Part 1 - Foundation Skills. The course teaches the exploitation of the important advanced features and facilities available in z/OS JCL and shows how JCL maintenance can be simplified in order to aid productivity.
This course also introduces and explains the use of DFSORT ICETOOL, a dataset reporting utility that provides a batch front-end for DFSORT, which is capable of performing complex sorting, copying, merging, reporting and analytical tasks using multiple datasets in a single job. This tool can be called from a program or executed directly in a batch job. ICETOOL provides a set of 'operators' that provides a wide variety of tasks, and this course shows how to effectively exploit the benefits offered by this utility.
