we are using SYNCSORT as primary sort application, but
although DFSORT in connection with DB2. Now we plan to install

code 38 (IGX00038).
I have to ask: where did you come up with "38" as the extended routing
code to use?
I would have expected DFSORT to use 17 and SYNCSORT to use something in
the 200-255 range that are reserved for non-IBM products.
Or perhaps you might say that "the" sort program is to use routing code
17.
Only the product can tell you if it has a dependency on the routing code
that you use. Most will not have such a dependency; some might.
In any case, you really ought to use something in the range 200-255 for
the second. For what it's worth, there is a historical annotation from
1988 that SVC 109 routing codes up to 53 are "assigned". I do not know
"assigned to what" or even if such assignments are still correct.
From Sri h Kolusu's response, it sounds like DFSORT is already setup
to use routing code 38 if you specify the ALT parm.
Also, according to:
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v1r12/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.zos.r12.ieav200%2Fsvc109.htm
(watch the wrap)
routing codes C8-FF are reserved for customer use with SVC 109, so they
should be able to use those as well as SVC 200-255.
Umm, 'C8-FF' are hex values which equate to 200-255.
There are no 'extra' values there.
