I'm trying to do the following and I know it does not work because IDCAMS says IDC2559I MEMBER CAN NOT BE SPECIFIED WITH A GENERIC NAME
But is there a way to do something like this, without restricting the job to V2R1 and symbols in SYSIN? I want to delete all members of a PDS where the PDS is named with a JCL symbol: //DELETMEM EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //OUTLOAD DD DISP=(OLD,KEEP),DSN=FOO.&FMID..LOAD //SYSIN DD * DELETE FOO.*.LOAD(*) NONVSAM FILE(OUTLOAD) /* I suppose I could do something with IEFBR14 and allocate a new dataset with a temporary name in one step and then delete the old dataset and rename the new one in the next step. Is there something easier?
