A developer is having an issue with a program. The odd thing is that if he reruns the job it works. One thing worthy of note is that the input is 2 concatenated sequential datasets. The second one is empty.
I am thinking that at one time I read that if a data set is allocated (IEFBR14 perhaps) but has yet to be opened it will be missing the end of file indicator, which can cause problems for a program that reads it. Am I remembering correctly, or is my old brain making this up? Hey, I'm 70 I have an excuse if my memory is failing.
