OMVS Command in JCL

[venkat kulkarni]

Hello,

I have requirement to run omvs command using batch job but not sure, where
i am making mistake.

//IBMUSEER JOB 654,VENKAT,CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSPUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *

OGET '/u/venkat/test_01.txt' 'IBM06.DATA.TEST1'
OGET '/u/venkat/test_02.txt' 'IBM06.DATA.TEST2'


OSHELL
{
echo '!rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt' ; +
echo '!rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt' ; }

/*

but this jcl doesn't seems to be removing the file from the location,we
mentioned but OGET command works well.

Please suggest, if any changes in this JCL is required to make this full
process work.

​Well, first off, the OSHELL has the wrong syntax as show in the above
message. It should look like:

​
OSHELL +
{ +

echo '!rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt' ; +
​
​
echo '!rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt' ; }

​Second, why do you expect an "echo" command to remove files? You have
simply said to "echo" the "!rm ..." lines to stdout. Which is what happened
in my test. The ! in the string does NOT mean "execute the following
string". You should have something like:

OSHELL +
{ +
rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt ; +
​
​
rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt ; }
​
​or, even simpler:

OSHELL +
rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt ; +
​
​
rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt ;


​Lastly, why are you doing two "rm" commands for the same file?​

I'd suggest as an easier alternative:
//STEP EXEC PGM=IEFB14
//FILE DD PATHOPTS=ORDWR,PATHDISP=DELETE,
// PATH='/u/venkat/test_01.txt'

Or, the alternative (untested):

//STEP EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH, PARMDD=CMDS
//STDOUT DD SYSOUT=(,)
//STDERR DD SYSOUT=(,)
//PARMDD DD *
set -x;
cp "//'IBM06.DATA.TEST1''" /u/venkat/test_01.txt;
cp "//'IBM06.DATA.TEST2''" /u/venkat/test_02.txt;
rm -r /u/venkat/test_01.txt' ;
rm -r /u/venkat/test_02.txt' ;
//

​Personally, I prefer your method for "UNIX only" work. But the IKJEFT01
method may be "better" if one is doing other TSO work in the same input
stream.​

I just use IKJEFT01 but the caveat is you need to BPX rexx in SYSEXEC
this works well for me, you can use any shell command




//SYSA EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,REGION=0K
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSEXEC DD DSN=SYS1.SBPXEXEC,DISP=SHR
//SYSTSIN DD *
PROF MSGID WTPMSG

Gil,

Will this still work if the file does not exist when the IEFBR14 step is run?

​Probably should have the OCREAT in the PATHOPTS. I.e.

​​
//STEP EXEC PGM=IEFB14
//FILE DD PATHOPTS=

​(​
OCREAT,RDWR),PATHDISP=DELETE,
// PATH='/u/venkat/test_01.txt'

Thanks for your help. I am able to run omvs command using JCL now.
