Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the LM / JCL automatic release system of the present embodiment comprises a plurality of terminals 1a, 1b ... Each having an input device T1 and a print output device P1, and a host computer 2. Has been done. The host computer 2 includes a release information storage unit F1 that stores release information input from the input device T1 of each terminal, and an extraction process that extracts only the release information of the transfer target that matches the system date from the release information storage unit F1. Means AP1
An extracted data storage unit F2 that stores the extracted release information, and a copy source library L1 that stores the newly created or updated LM or JCL as members.
A transfer processing unit AP2 for copying a transfer target member from the copy source library L1 to the copy destination library L2 according to the release information stored in the extracted data storage unit F2, and a print output device P2 are provided.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a record layout of release information stored in the release information storage unit F1 and the extraction data storage unit F2 shown in FIG. 1 and the extraction processing by the extraction processing means AP1. LM / JCL (hereinafter,
A member responsible for creating and updating (referred to as member) stores the completed member in the copy source library L1 and inputs release information designating the release date of the corresponding member from the input device T1 of each terminal. The release information includes the member name, version number, update date, and release date of each member.
It is stored in the release information storage unit F1 in the record format shown in. Regarding the records stored in the release information storage unit F1, only the record of the migration target member of the current day is extracted by the extraction processing means AP1 when the host computer 2 is started or the system date is changed, and the extracted data storage unit F2.
Stored in.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the processing procedure of the extraction processing means AP1. Records are read by using the release information storage unit F1 as an input file, it is determined whether the release date value and the system date value are the same for all records in the release information storage unit F1, and the same record is extracted data storage unit F2. Output to.

When the storage of the extracted record in the extracted data storage section F2 is completed, the migration processing means AP2 is activated, and the migration target member corresponding to the extracted record is copied from the copy source library L1 to the copy destination library L2.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the migration processing means AP2. Records are read by using the extracted data storage unit F2 as an input file, and the following points are confirmed for all records in the extracted data storage unit F2 (steps S1 and S2). (1) Whether the member name exists in the directory of the copy source library L1 (steps S3, S
4, S6, S7). (2) If the member names are the same, are both versions and update dates the same (steps S3, S4, S
5, S6, S7). As a result, when both conditions (1) and (2) are satisfied, the data part and directory information of the corresponding member of the copy source library L1 is copied to the copy destination library L2 (step S8), and the release information record Is output as an updated list from the print output device P2 (step S9). On the other hand, if either condition (1) or (2) is not satisfied, the release information record is output from the print output device P2 as an error list (step S10).

As described above, since the corresponding member of the copy source library L1 is surely copied to the copy destination library L2 on the designated release date, the library manager can check the printed update list and error list. Good.
It is more convenient to output the release information record extracted by the extraction processing means AP1 from the print output device P2 as a shift list for the current day.

Next, a specific application example of the present invention will be described. The copy source library L1 is used as a development environment library, the copy destination library L2 is used as a production environment library, and the terminals 1a, 1b, ... Are installed at each programmer's place. The programmer completes the creation or update of the new LM or JCL, stores it in the development environment library, and then inputs the member name, version number, update date, and release date from the input device T1.
By activating the extraction processing means AP1 and the migration processing means AP2 at the timing of system day change of the host computer 2, the members corresponding to the release date desired by the programmer are automatically reflected in the production environment. The programmer prints the data input by himself / herself with the print output device P1.
The library administrator can confirm the migration process using the form output from the print output device P2.

[0015]

As described above, the LM / J of the present invention is used.
The CL automatic release method automatically transfers all LM / JCL members, including the confirmation of member names, version numbers, update dates, and release dates, which was conventionally done manually by the library administrator. There is an effect that the transfer can be performed, work time can be reduced, and human error can be prevented.
