Running Jobs With BIM-EPIC
BIM-EPIC is designed to work with your existing JCL. However, JCL changes are sometimes
necessary and sometimes helpful. Some situations require special entries in the BIM-EPIC
dataset definition (EDD). This chapter discusses how to use BIM-EPIC and JCL with
products from IBM and other third-party vendors. It describes new requirements and the use
of BIM-EPIC label options. Recommendations for JCL and EDDs are presented for each
topic when relevant. Please refer to the $INDEX SAMPJOB file as a reference to the many
job samples provided on the BIM-EPIC installation tape. Familiarity with the TLBL and
DLBL statements and BIM-EPIC DD statements is assumed.
