Lately, I tried a job with:
// EXEC
//DD1 DD DISP=(MOD,CATLG),...
//DD2 DD DISP=SHR,...
The job failed with JCL error because DD2 does not exist.
DD1 was never created. Clever, actually; I had expected
DD statements to be processed in order of appearance; I'm
glad not to have the side effect of a failed jobstep.
But where is it documented in what order allocations are
performed? JCL RM? Pretty thick book and lots of hits on
"allocate". EXEC statement? I see no subtopic such as
"Processing". JCL UG?
Just curious,
gil
