 5. Enter the XEDIT command FILE. The file ACSCMS EXEC A is then executed to 

run the utility, and the ACSCMS exec remains on the caller’s A-disk. 

For utilities that run in the SCP environment, job statements for the requested utilities are 
constructed from parameters in the system profile (ACS SYSPROF). Parameter statement 
templates are presented for the caller to edit. Only noncomment statements are processed 
further. 

For example, entering: 

produces an edit session display of this ACSUTIL SLKJCL file:

 

This file provides templates for two AUDIT runs. The first is a complete audit of an entire 
ACS (note that this would run many hours). The second provides all the parameters that 
may be used to limit the scope of the audit. As initially presented, all control statements 
are actually just comments.

If you decide not to execute the utility, then enter the XEDIT command QUIT. 

To execute the utility, perform the following steps: 

 1. Delete the lines in the template that are not required, or leave the comment indicator 

(*) in column one. 

 2. Remove the comment indicator (*) from the desired lines. 

 3. Specify values for the desired parameters. 

 4. Delete the parameters that are not desired. 

 5. Enter the command ‘‘FILE.’’ 

 6. The job statements are then checked for errors, and if none are found, the file 

ACSUTIL SLKJCL A is both saved on the user’s A-disk and submitted to the ACS 
service machine to run as an SCP batch job (class U). The submitting virtual machine 
is notified (via console messages) when the job begins execution, when it ends, and 
what the final return code is. The resultant reports are then spooled back to the 
submitter.
