In my case, because DataStage is one of about 6 different code execution platforms that have to run in a unified schedule. We have batch schedules that run from z/OS to Unix and back, Unix to Windows and back, etc. It's easy to train an operator in Control-M and be done with it. It's much more diffi...

Hi Ernie. Before I forget again, thank you very much for your input on this. We have a fairly well-defined division of work here. Our business clients are all internal, and we have an organized (always use that word carefully) liaison for requirements and testing called the business system analyst (...

Hi Franklin... It would be interesting to know your site's goals. Is it for inter-dependencies between the offerings? Parsing of actual source code? Or just identification of it? The lazy answer is all-of-the-above. Our shop covers so much it would take me another 30 mintues to list everything. The...

The one concept not mentioned yet is reusability. I have a small app (that will quadruple in size by the time we're done) that has the identical initial input stage for every job. It's paramaterized according to the source data configuration (z/OS mainframe datasets generated by Cobol modules). Afte...

Re: Signed/Unsigned Decimal to Pack Decimal
...but when I look at mainframe, negative values show "D" in last nibble which is good but positive values show "C" and I want "F" at the end to match current process. Any suggestion what changes do i have to make to ge desired output? A review of the current process i...

Code/Impact analysis tools: IN-COM's Smart TS XL
We are going to do an evaluation of this tool, briefly and rather inadequately described at http://www.in-com.com/Products/tabid/62/Default.aspx . IN-COM claims built-in support for DS code. I request opinions about this tool from any source and any level of exposure to it, even rumors if you have t...

http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/c1899472.pdf Gregg, thanks for posting that link. Question for which I'm looking for the briefest answer (I'll do my own detail work): I began using the XML stages under 7.5.2 recently. Is there a highest-level view of changes from that to 8.5? My shop is n...

You're welcome. I try to keep aware that people from many different cultures read here. I think your understanding is correct. I just want to be sure of one thing for you: your char(5) values will display as decimal(6,0) out of the packed decimal attribute. You should not have to do any zero-padding...
