OPS/JCLMaster

The architecture of OPS/JCLMaster comprises several key components designed for efficient and reliable JCL variable substitution. The main components include the Variable Definition Manager, the Substitution Engine, the Job Submission Interface, and the Configuration Manager. The Variable Definition Manager is responsible for storing and managing variable definitions.

The Substitution Engine processes JCL, replacing variables with their defined values. The Job Submission Interface handles the interaction with the operating system for job submission. The Configuration Manager handles the configuration files and settings.

These components communicate using standard mainframe protocols. Variable definitions are stored in configuration files, which can be managed through the administrative interface. The product supports various data types for variables, allowing for flexible configuration.

The administrative interface provides tools for managing variables, monitoring job submissions, and reviewing logs. The product supports standard mainframe security protocols, including authentication and access control. The network requirements include access to the mainframe and any external data sources used for variable values.

The product's design emphasizes scalability and performance, ensuring efficient variable substitution in high-volume batch environments. The architecture is designed to minimize resource consumption and maximize throughput.
