JES2 processing with JESDS

JES2 processes OUTPUT JCL statements for system-managed data sets (JESDS parameter) only if a job starts execution.

System-managed data sets are not processed for the following jobs because the jobs do not start execution:
  • Jobs that specify a TYPRUN value on the JOB statement that prevents execution, such as COPY or SCAN.
  • Jobs that do not execute because of a JCL error, an error in a JES2 control statement, or a system failure in JES2 input processing.
