tagcicsbundle

tagcicsbundle

Script to run on z/OS to set the character set associated with each file in a CICS bundle based on the file extension. The character set is used by some file editors to automatically convert files to and from non-native EBCDIC code pages to browse and edit files. This can make it easier to quickly view CICS bundles when diagnosing issues.

Requirements

• bash is used to run the script. For Linux this is likely pre-installed. For z/OS it is available from Ported Tools.
• chtag is used to set the character set associated with the file as part of the the file tags. This is installed as part of z/OS.

Usage

tagcicsbundle [-hv] DIRECTORY

Options:

-h, --help     Help
-v, --verbose  Verbose messages

DIRECTORY is the CICS bundle directory.
