For instream data, you should be ok by specifying a unique DLM value on the
SYSIN DD statement. But if the data contained statements starting with ./
statements, that would be a problem.
I don't know about the UPDTE program mentioned from the CBTAPE. But Lennie is
right--IEBUPDTE
I don't know about the logic required to create a member -- Kolusu might have
the best idea. But creating one long sequential file with all the members and
using IEBUPDTE is pretty simple:
//STEP1EXEC PGM=IEBUPDTE,PARM=MOD
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=OLD,DSN=SOME.PDSE
