Generally, There are 2 type of copybooks.
Data division copy book
These copybooks are usually used to represent the
structure of the file or variables used in Cobol. Say if
there are any changes in the layout of copybook. make sure
the length specified in JCL LRECL is appropriate.
Procedure division Copybook.
These copybooks will have some cobol stmts coded in them.
For this copybooks there can be no changes in JCL.

Answer / muttiah
The only change would be to make sure the program is
compiled and link-edited, so as to get the changes
reflected in the load module you specify in the JCL.

If that copybook represents some data set in JCL and we are going to modify(changing length of any variable) the copybook and we are going to write some records in that dataset than we should have to modify the Logical record length(LRECL)of that dataset in JCL
