Identifying jobs that use RPCV


During the migration from RPCV to RUV, you should examine existing jobs that execute RPCV steps and determine how to handle them. You might need to replace some RPCV job steps with similar RUV job steps. You might be able to replace many RPCV job steps with a single RUV job step because RUV provides group processing that simplifies processes. You might be able to delete some RPCV job steps altogether because RUV provides superior automation.

To identify jobs that contain RPCV job steps, you can use a search utility, such as the IBM ISRSUPC utility, to search your JCL libraries. A sample job for performing this search is located in member ISRSRCH of the RUV.CNTL library. The following figure figure shows JCL to perform the search:

//ISRSRCH  JOB  your job statement
//SEARCH   EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,PARM=('SRCHCMP,ANYC')
//NEWDD    DD   DSN=your.JCLLIB,DISP=SHR
//OUTDD    DD   SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD   *
     SRCHFOR 'ISIDRS'
     SRCHFOR 'DRS',W,10:20
//*

 

Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
