Look at your filterdd statements. You need to make the statements almost identical as to what they would be if they were instream in the DFDSS dump.
So, if you could look at the control cards in INDSNS01 it should have continuations and parenthesis that are very similar to what you would have if they all fit in the SYSIN statements. Consider the filters to be like concatenated input. If you can post the INDSNS01 we can probably tell you where the problem is. And since you have two FILTERDDs, they need to act as one. I typically only use one FILTERDD statement due to this type of issue. Inside the FILTERDD INDSNS01 should be something like (I have not looked this up and I am doing this from memory) INCLUDE(name, - Name - ) Lizette -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of esmie moo Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 6:45 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: DFDSS QUESTION - FILTERDD Good Morining Gentle Readers, I am trying to use more than 1 FILTERDD while attempting to backup several dsns using DFDSS.
