Dear all,

We are using EOS (Entreprise Output Solution), I like to extract the spool data into a dataset in a job.

Please let me know if I can provide any more information.

Thanks in advance.

What have you tried? What do you not understand from the manuals and online help? How do your co-workers do this and why does that not work for you?

I tried JCL using PGM SPMUT00 but didnt work out.
I keep on trying finally, right JCL without error I did n ended up with authorization issue.
In 3.4, I can browse the dataset but by using JCL am not able to.

thank you..

Go to your site support group.
Find the security team within the site support group.
Explain what you are wanting to do and that you got an authorization error.
Ask them to give you authority to do what you want to do.

An authorization error is one of those problems for which a forum is ABSOLUTELY no help to you -- because the valid and correct solution is to get authorized. Anything else would be considered attempting to violate the security of your site and hence could lead to management action up to and including termination of the employee (you in this case).

yes, I have reached my companies support group and raised the request.

Thank you...

Hello Experts,

I got the access but am getting syntax error. I am not able to get the example anywhere.

Here the code:


The RSDLOG message:


Thanks in advance.

3 things:
1 - have you checked that it conforms to the syntax defined in the manual?
2 - have you tried without the line number in cols 73-80?
3 - I think I covered my third point in point 1 - so double-check.

1. Talk to your coworkers about their use of the utility and do what they tell you.
2. Read the documentation and see where your job does not meet the software requirements. And if your site is licensed for the software, YOU have access to the documentation -- it may be hardcopy, it may be on an internal company web site, or you may have to go to the vendor to get it -- but you do have access to the manuals. If you cannot be bothered to find and read the documentation, why should we be bothered to help you?
3. EOS is a very rare product -- there's almost nothing on the Internet about it, so do not expect to find much help on this (or any) forum because most people simply do not know the product.
4. The location of the error message indicates that EOS may not support line numbers in its commands, as Nicc mentioned.

Hi Specify the dataset u want the spool to be printed into in the SYSOUT DD along with DCB parameters for dataset allocations it will solve your issue.Please find the jcl in the attachment

Velayuthem, I suspect after almost SIX years the issue was resolved a long time ago.
