Hello Kolusu,
I tried to answer queries raised by different experts.
We are looking for YYMMDD format, which is DATE('S') function in REXX
In my current requirement, we have JCL in place and there we are using
tape volume as date like below.
example OV='D18611',
Ex : In this below DD name, from JCL should be updated with today's date in
OV='D18611'
//IEB PROC OV='D18611',DS='DS',LB='LB',GDG='(0)'
and
Or like below. in DD name TAPE with VOL=SER=(D18611) .
//TAPE DD DSN=RETP.DATA.QSAMCPY1,DISP=(,PASS),
// UNIT=359D,VOL=SER=(D18611),LABEL=(193,SL)
//*=====================================
Can you please suggest, how to handle such situation and update required
date
Thank you once again to help us to solve this issue.
