Answer / sukku
TO check JCL errors generally we go with spool only..That
is th eonly way and there is no other way...
But if want to check ur JCl's syntax errors ,you can do
with TYPE RUN=SCAN parameter..If u use this ,the job
doesnot sumbits to the operating sytem and more over it
gives the error messages...
Ideally speaking it is the best practice to check JcL erros
before sumitting the job...

Answer / jignesh patel
there is one short command exist to check the JCL error
without submitting the job. Just type '!JCK' or 'JJ' to

Answer / hari
Please use TYPE RUN=SCAN or HOLD
SCAN - It checks for the JCL error
HOLD it checks for JCL error and waits till the user
interacts to it.

Answer / suma
you can give NOTIFY parameter. it will notifying the status
to the user about the status of the job. once you got the
message, check in the SPOOL about the status of the job.
Otherwise you can check in SAR.
