>>Do you know if DFSORT supports allocating SORTIN and SORTOUT to UNIX pipes (FIFOs)? John,
Yes you can. Check this example http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ice1ca60/11.5.11 Thanks, Kolusu DFSORT Development IBM Corporation IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@listserv.ua.edu> wrote on 06/06/2014 09:54:44 AM: > From: John McKown <john.archie.mck...@gmail.com> > To: IBM-MAIN@listserv.ua.edu, > Date: 06/06/2014 09:55 AM > Subject: Re: Any need?
