Illustrations are in TSO/ISPF with JCL to make the book's screen examples look exactly like those seen on a computer.
This book teaches novices exactly what they need to know to better understand this difficult, but necessary language, while serving as a quick reference for the more experienced JCL user. Accessible and comprehensive, it boasts of hundreds of JCL segments followed by easy to understand explanations, three complete chapters on JCL utilities, four chapters on VSAM basics, and more.

As IBM® continues to enhance the functionality, performance, and availability of IBM Db2®, the utilities have made significant strides towards self-management. IBM Db2 for z/OS utilities is leading the trend towards autonomics. During the last couple of versions of Db2 for z/OS, and through the maintenance stream, new features and enhancements have been delivered to further improve the performance and functionality of the Db2 utilities. The intent of this IBM RedpaperTM publication is to help Db2 Database Administrators, Db2 System Programmers, and anyone who runs Db2 for z/OS utilities implement best practices. The intent of this paper is not to replicate the Db2 for z/OS Utilities Reference Guide or the Db2 for z/OS Installation Guide. This paper describes and informs you how to apply real-life practical preferred practices for the IBM Db2 for z/OS Utilities Suite. The paper concentrates on the enhancements provided by Db2 utilities, regardless of the version, albeit some functions and features are available only in Db2 12 for IBM z/OS®.
