Preparing TWS (OPC) Job Schedule Information

You make TWS job schedule information available to Enterprise Analyzer in three reports:

  • The application description report contains most of the information about jobs and how they are scheduled. Use the EQQADPRT utility to generate application description reports on the mainframe. The reports must have a .adr extension. Only these reports are registered in the workspace.
  • The workstation description report identifies components and the tasks they perform. Use the EQQWSPRT utility to generate workstation description reports on the mainframe. The reports must have a .wdr extension. These reports are not registered in the workspace, but must be identified in the Workstation Report field for a TWS Schedule on the Verification > Settings tab of the Workspace Options.
  • The optional cross reference of applications and external dependencies report resolves job names. Use the EQQADDEP utility to generate cross-reference reports on the mainframe. The reports must have a .xrf extension. These reports are not registered in the workspace, but must be identified in the Cross-reference Report field for a TWS Schedule on the Verification > Settings tab of the Workspace Options.

Each report should have ANSI carriage control characters in column 1. You can create a report with carriage control characters in column 1 by specifying DCB=RECFM=FBA (or FA) in the JCL used to run the utility.
