Introduction

Purpose

The aim of the following guide is to help users understand and write Korn-Shell scripts to be used with the Batch Runtime, and how to user Tuxedo Job Enqueueing Service (TuxJES).

The guide covers the usual tasks that are performed within Korn-Shell scripts, whether they are the result of a conversion from z/OS JCL or newly written for the target platform. The guide also covers the usage of TuxJES.

Organization

This guide is divided into four main chapters:

•	Overview of the Batch Runtime: This chapter introduces the general principles of the Batch Runtime.

•

Using the Batch Runtime: This chapter describes, through various examples, how to perform the usual tasks required to implement the Batch Runtime. This section describes how the different Oracle Tuxedo Application Runtime for Batch high-level functions can be assembled in order to create a single "step", and then how the different steps are assembled in order to create a complete Korn shell script.

•	Best Practices: This chapter provides guidance for preserving z/OS capabilities on the target platform.

•	Using TuxJES: This chapter provides guidance for configuring and executing TuxJES.
