Recommendations

Consider these recommendations:
  • If you currently route all output for JCC processing to one system in your configuration, consider checking the output on the system where the job ran to balance the JCC workload among the available processors. The JCC task cannot process multiple jobs in parallel.
  • Remove unnecessary JCC processing:
    • Detection of nonzero return codes, use NOERROR instead.
    • Trapping NOT CATLG x, use z/OS to fail the job on step end.
    • SKIP sections of the output where you cannot possibly match a condition defined in the messages tables.
    • Avoid scanning user SYSOUT data sets if possible.
