Validating the License File with LICUTIL
The Jopaz installation set also includes a JCL job example to run the license validation utility (LICUTIL) of the Mainframe License Check (MLC). You can find LICUTIL in the Jopaz JOBS library after installation. The supplied job example only serves the purpose of checking the license and outputting its components. For more information and functionalities of LICUTIL, check the MLC product documentation.
//*-------------------------------------------------------------------

// SET JPZLIC=JPZ_LICENSE_FILE
// SET PRODVER=JPZBT1.1
In the JCL Symbolic Parameter Section, the DSN of the license file (JPZLIC) is filled directly with the value from the jpz_variabale_input_file.txt during installation. You must only check the value for PRODVER and change it if necessary. This is made up of the product code and product version separated by a dot.
Note:
You cannot check special license codes from the range from JPZ00 to JPZ99, because LICUTIL expects the product to be 3 or 5 alpha characters. The format of the PRODVER parameter is PPP[PP]V.R[.S]. When you try to check JPZ01 for example, this produces an incorrect product code error, because it expects the product code tag to be JPZ, not JPZ01.
