Murach's OS/390 and z/OS JCL
Mainframe programmers would be more productive if they had a better grasp of JCL. So this book focuses on the JCL needed for testing, debugging, and executing application programs. As a result, it goes beyond the JOB, EXEC, and DD statements to cover subjects like VSAM file handling, sort/merge, Unix System Services...features that programmers can profit from.
But some trainers also teach a course using just the
first section of this book, which gives an overview
of the IBM mainframe environment. They've told us that
this is the best material they've found for giving their
trainees a conceptual understanding of the operating
system that empowers them to work more effectively.
