JCL over 71 character issue

Post by lbuchume » Fri Apr 04, 2014 11:55 pm

my JCL for ftp has a long 'machine' command that takes it over 71 chars

//NETRC DD *
machine xxxxx login xxxxx password xxxxx
//INPUT DD *

other than shortening the line, what other suggestions to fix the issue?
can it be broken down to two lines somehow?

Thanks,
leo

I don't think you are using FTP. Machine is not an ftp command I've ever encountered.

Consult your documenation for the product. You could experiement by just splitting the line.

Can you post the JCL and the sysout it gives you when you run it?
