title: Invoking Rexx from JCL
body: <p>To invoke a Rexx program and pass parameters, IKJEFT01 can be used</p>
  
  <pre><code>// SET PARM1=
  // SET PARM2=
  //AUDITDS  EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,
  //     PARM='RXPGM &amp;PARM1 &amp;PARM2'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But PARM supports limited number of characters. Is there any way to invoke a REXX using a JCL and pass parameter containing more characters?
  Using SYSTSIN would be a solution, but I want to use symbolic parameters as that of in PARM parameter.</p>
