Hi Wayne,
I see SCLM now in ISPF. I wasnt aware of it.
Is the IBM online doc good enough for a SCLM newbie?
thanks

Bill,
If SCLM is installed there is a sample project you can work from. That
should be a good starter.
There is a set of JCL members to set up a project, use that as a basis.
Any questions, just keep asking away.

Yes. I wondered the same thing: who is asking, and WHY?
/etc/security is increasingly common on POSIX systems. If something "out
there" in your enterprise is getting tripped-up by it, methinks that
something needs fixing.

Perhaps use Git for z/OS ?
You could maintain the master JCL in zFS directories under Git control with a
"deployment" method to copy to run-time PDS/Es.

I can assign a different activation profile for the same physical lpar in each

Hi Bill,
You could treat JCL (with line numbers on) as a ++MAC in SMP.
Each "PTF" (++MACUPD) could be IEBUPDTE Control cards (e.g. ./ CHANGE
followed by numbered "cards".

Billy,
If you have access to FILE Manger tool then you can pass the parms as variables
to job and it will update the file. Here is a simple example
// EXPORT SYMLIST=*
// SET SRCSTRNG='BILLY '
// SET TGTSTRNG='ASHTON'

Hi Kolusu,
1) You could use IPOUPDTE also.
2) Does File manager do "intelligent changes" like ISPF Edit? (If Source
String and Target String are different lengths, does the "line" beyond
the change get shifted, or, if there multiple blanks, not necessarily)

But to be clear, this all has nothing to do with (mentioned) JCLIN

David,
AFAIK , IPOUPDTE can only work on PDS but does NOT work with sequential
datasets. OP hasn't specified if the input is a pds or sequential datasets.
File-Manager handles both PDS and sequential files.

Hi Dave,

No I am not editing the target data directly. We are working out of a pds

Based on my experience (I have no inside knowledge), IEARR is a very simple
non-space-switching PC program that calls your specified EP as a
subroutine, and same goes for the ARR address. It's very simple... no
subtask is involved, nor any of the privilege modifications that PCs would
