Troubleshoot and Resolve Complex Issues
TimeWednesday, August 1910:30am - 10:50am EDT
LocationRoom 319
DescriptionJCL issues are often discovered late, when failed jobs turn into time consuming troubleshooting exercises. This session shows how developers can use familiar interfaces like VSCode to validate JCL earlier and resolve complex issues more efficiently. Attendees will see how simple scripts built on USS can support repeatable validation and introduce light automation without heavy frameworks. The focus is on understanding errors and resolving them faster, not just flagging syntax problems. By keeping validation close to the developer and close to the platform, teams can reduce rework and production impact. The session emphasizes practical techniques that can be applied immediately.
