JCL Used in Retrieving OADS Programs

Execution of the following JCL is one way for users to transfer data files containing FASTER programs from NWRDC to their local sites. This JCL is to be submitted into the network for execution at NWRDC. There, it executes a procedure that will write the 80 character records containing the desired program to the user's local PUNCH queue. When this is done, the user will retrieve the program source code from its PUNCH queue for local compilation. All programs are written in ANSI standard COBOL LE and should require only minor modification to compile under the user's version of COBOL LE.

Before submitting this JCL to the network, please make the following replacements:

acct the user's logon id at NWRDC
user name the user's name
password the password for that logon id
node the user's network node name (e.g., SBAC for Alachua School District)
remote the user's network remote number (e.g., R100 for Alachua School District)
program the name of the program the user wants to retrieve (e.g., SRTS11, for the program that produces a printer listing of a file of requests)

//acctRJ JOB (acct,,,99,9999),'user name',TIME=(,9)
/*ROUTE XEQ NWR
/*PASSWORD password
/*ROUTE PRINT node.remote
/*ROUTE PUNCH node.remote
/*JOBPARM CARDS=99999
//PROCLIB DD DSN=FRN.DISTRICT.PROCLIB,DISP=SHR
//      EXEC NWRRJE
//XMIT.SYSUT1 DD DSN=FRN.DISTRICT.SOURCE(program),DISP=SHR

Note that the above JCL is not the only way to get a file of program source code transferred from NWRDC to a user's local site. FTP or TSO XMIT/RECEIVE can also be used (by those users who have access to these functions). The above JCL, though, can be used by all users.
