SYNCSORT Question with IFTHEN and JOINKEYS

2020-09-15 Thread George, William@FTB
Greetings

I'm stumped with a sort using IFTHEN logic within a JOINKEYS process.
I can't seem to get away from this error:  BOTHFLS  HAS INCOMPATIBLE LRECL

NOTE: BOTHFLS is the output file for records in both files.  :)
F1ONLY & F2ONLY are self-explanatory.

Here's are the cards:

  JOINKEYS F1=IN1,FIELDS=(1,12,A)
  JOINKEYS F2=IN2,FIELDS=(12,12,A)
*
  JOIN UNPAIRED
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,710,?,F2:1,596)
* -
* | CONTROL STATEMENTS AFTER RECORDS HAVE BEEN JOINED IN THE TEMP FILE|
* -
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL FNAMES=BOTHFLS,INCLUDE=(711,1,CH,EQ,C'B'),
 IFTHEN=(WHEN(1,1,CH,EQ,C'1'),
BUILD=(1:1,710)),
 IFTHEN=(WHEN(1,1,CH,NE,C'1'),
BUILD=(001:711,596,
   597:1,114))
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FL1ONLY,INCLUDE=(711,1,CH,EQ,C'1'), BUILD=(1,710)
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FL2ONLY,INCLUDE=(711,1,CH,EQ,C'2'), BUILD=(712,596)
/*

Note: I have successfully run each BUILD individually without the IFTHEN to 
verify I have the lengths of each correct.
We are on SYNCSORT FOR Z/OS  2.1.9.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Bill

Sorry to be so late on this...

Could you post the description of the group item and the INITIALIZE statement?
It would appear that none of the items under the group were of a type that 
could be initialized, but I would like to take a look, if you have not already 
moved on frmo this problem!

Also, I would be surprised if the behavior of COBOL V4 was different from COBOL 
V6, I do not think that have not changed this code in the compiler!

Cheers,

ICETOOL - SPLICE two DSNs that match on key. Output Updated and Not Updated

2019-11-05 Thread George, William@FTB
I have an ICETOOL process I cannot seem to get right.

I have two datasets:

1. A BASE dataset

2. A dataset with data to insert into a BASE record IF the key data match
I'd like to outputs.

1. With the BASE records that were NOT updated

2. With the BASE records that WERE updated

I'm able to get an output of the BASE records that were 'updated' but I also 
would like a separate dataset of those records that were not 'updated'.

Below are my TOOLIN cards.

NOTES:
DD IN1 is the BASE dataset and has an INREC to insert (not overlay) 40 spaces 
in position 151 and shift the data after it to the right.
This is where some data from IN2 will be overlayed.
DD IN2 is the dataset with data to overly in the matching BASE records.
IN2 has an LRECL of 100 so an INREC is used to change its length to match the 
BASE dataset's 520 LRECL
The data to copy from IN2 is in position 32 for a length of 20 and is to be 
inserted into position 151 of the BASE record.
DD OUT1 - is to contain those BASE records that were NOT updated.  THESE FILE 
COMES UP EMPTY 8-(
DD OUT2 - is to contain the updated records and this seems to work.

//TOOLIN  DD *
  COPY FROM(IN1) TO(T1) USING(CTL1)
  COPY FROM(IN2) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)
  SPLICE FROM(T1) TO(OUT2) ON(1,21,CH) WITH(151,20) USING(CTL3)
/*
//CTL1CNTL DD *
 INREC BUILD=(1:1,150,40X,151,330)
 OUTREC FIELDS=(1,520)
/*
//CTL2CNTL DD *
 OUTREC FIELDS=(1,100,151:32,20,350X)
/*
//CTL3CNTL DD *
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT1,INCLUDE=(151,1,CH,EQ,C' '),OUTREC=(1,520)
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT2,INCLUDE=(151,1,CH,NE,C' '),OUTREC=(1,520)

Any insights would be appreciated.

COBOL Migration v4 to v6.1 - CONDITIONS OF INITIALIZATION

2019-11-01 Thread George, William@FTB
Since migrating from COBOL v4 to COBOL v6.1 a few runtime abends have occurred 
which seem to have a root cause of data items not being initialized.   These 
data-items seem to be under a group level where the group level is initialized.

The compile's diagnostic errors listing shows al warning messages of:
IGYPS2047-W   "INITIALIZE" STATEMENT OPERAND  DID NOT MEET 
CONDITIONS FOR INITIALIZATION  WAS NOT INITIALIZED.

Our Quick Ref did not have info on this message but I did find one mention of 
it in both the v6.1 migration and customization guide. However the text of the 
message was completely different and referred to the ALPHA parm.
IGYPS2047-W "INITIALIZE" statement receiver "ALPHA" was incompatible with the 
data category(s) of the "REPLACING" operand(s). "ALPHA" was not initialized.

Does anyone have insights on what the term "CONDITIONS FOR INITIZATION" refers 
to and what these conditions are?  This might help us determine why some 
data-items do not meet these condition under its group level.

Re: Weird thought for ISPF enhancement

2018-06-05 Thread George, William@FTB
If you like the benefits of many split screens then have a logon proc 
(Clist/REXX) create the split screens automagically for you each logon. I have 
8 session created behind the scenes.

I really like it. I have an associate who sets up some elaborate configuration 
of SPLITs. He is always selling me on the benefits. I see the benefits, but one 
of the reasons I do not follow suit is because of the need to re-do it on every 
logon. If I could just have ISPF automatically restore my previous setup it 
would be great.

Subject: Weird thought for ISPF enhancement

I'm short of sleep ... again. When I came to work this morning, my Chrome 
browser was "dead". When I restarted it, it prompted me with a message asking 
if I wanted to restore all the pages I had been on.

So, what occurred to me was, "Wouldn't it be nice if ISPF could do something 
like that." Now, ISPF doesn't really die often. But I think it would be a nice 
feature if there were a new ISPF command, perhaps called something like 
"SAVELEAVE" or HIBERNATE or whatever. This facility would let you logoff for 
the day, optionally SAVEing any changes if you're in EDIT or one or more 
screens. When you come in the next day, ISPF would give you an option to 
restore all your screens. Yes, there are problems about restarting an ISPF 
application, but basically you could only issue the above command at certain 
times, just like you can only SWAP or SPLIT, when you're in an DISPLAY verb. 
What I envision for an ISPF application is that it would get a special RC from 
the ISPF DISPLAY verb which would indicate "user wants to leave, checkpoint or 
abandon your processing". The application could then only do something like 
ISPF CHECKPOINT which would basically return to ISPF and ISPF would terminate 
the application.  The application would need to save its non-ISPF environment 
(close files, etc) before it issued the CHECKPOINT. When the user gets back 
into ISPF, the application is restarted at the next instruction after the 
CHECKPOINT. At this point, the application would be responsible to restore its 
internal, non-ISPF maintained, status (open files, reload important variable, 
etc).
This would occur for each active screen which did the ISPF CHECKPOINT.
Well, that's likely getting too detailed for a general, initial, discussion.

George,

It was a typo in our publications, it should be 1-10 instead of 1-3.  The 
sorting of 1-10 bytes is done with ON statement on SPLICE. Please look at the 
DFSMSG dataset and you will see the SPLICE control cards generates the SORT 
statement with 1,10,CH,A

We will update our pubs. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.


 "We sort the records of T1 on positions 1-10 and splice the second id byte for 
matching records. We use KEEPNODUPS to keep non-duplicate records. 


Just an fyi, SPLICE is an Older technique to find the matching records. 
Ideally we suggest using JOINKEYS

Re: ICETOOL - Question regarding a statement in the ICETOOL Guide

2017-10-26 Thread George, William@FTB
Thanks Steve... I tend to believe also it is a mistake (typo maybe) and should 
state it is sorted on the ON positions.
I'll check out this 'mini' guide.

Subject: Re: ICETOOL - Question regarding a statement in the ICETOOL Guide

Nothing in the "JCL code".
It appears to me the example has a mistake: either they meant they sort on 
"positions 1-10", or the SPLICE statement should have "ON(1,3,CH)".  This 
example is so trivial, it's hard to know for sure what they meant.  But 
probably it's the former.

There's a really helpful manual I found called "DFSORT: ICETOOL Mini-User 
Guide" (a misnomer -- full-sized users will find it
valuable) by Frank L. Yaeger.  My copy is dated October 2010.  It came from the 
DFSORT Team in San Jose, so it should be available from IBM.

ICETOOL - Question regarding a statement in the ICETOOL Guide

2017-10-25 Thread George, William@FTB
I am confused about a statement I'm seeing in the DFSORT - ICETOOL Chapter and 
its example:
Example 3 - Create files with matching and non-matching records
I've copied the example below and my question is regarding the last line below 
and it statement on sorting:
We sort the records of T1 on positions 1-3 and splice the second id byte for 
matching records.

Where in the JCL code does it state to sort the T1 records on positions 1-3??

//S3 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN1 DD *

   COPY FROM(IN2) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)

   OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT12,INCLUDE=(12,2,CH,EQ,C'12'),OUTREC=(1,10)
   OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT1,INCLUDE=(12,2,CH,EQ,C'11'),OUTREC=(1,10)
   OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT2,INCLUDE=(12,2,CH,EQ,C'22'),OUTREC=(1,10)
/*

We copy the IN1 records to the T1 data set and add an identifier of '11' to 
show they come from FILE1.
 We copy the IN2 records to the end (MOD) of the T1 data set and add an 
identifier of '22' to show they come from FILE2.
 We sort the records of T1 on positions 1-3 and splice the second id byte for

Well my first attempt to send a response failed.  You need to get to the print 
setup screen.  There you should see a setting about "multiple screens per 
page".  I checked both the "auto formfeed" and "close printer manually".  After 
you get this set up you will see a message at the bottom of the screen about 
closing the printer.  When you close the printer it will print all the screens. 
 This is under Reflection 2014R1 SP1 15.6.745.

We have Reflections.  I do not know how to print multiple screens, but I know

We have a tool from TechSmith called Snagit.  I use that in place of screen

Well my first attempt to send a response failed.  You need to get to the print 
setup screen.  There you should see a setting about "multiple screens per 
page".  I checked both the "auto formfeed" and "close printer manually".  After 
you get this set up you will see a message at the bottom of the screen about 
closing the printer.  When you close the printer it will print all the screens. 
 This is under Reflection 2014R1 SP1 15.6.745.


Thanks..

We will be transitioning from Extra! X-treme 9.3 to Reflection Desktop down the 
road and I am evaluating its functions and how our current use of Extra! will 
translate to Reflections.

One function our group makes good use of in Extra! is the "Print Multiple

then print them on one page formatted appropriately.  So far I'm unable to 
locate this function in Reflections.

Is anyone aware if this function is available?  And if so how to set this up?
In my research of the support site and documents I see some subtle mention of 
it as a possibility but I find no concrete means to do it.

Couple of clarifications 

1. It is DFSORT and not DFHSORT(There is no H) 2. Your error messages start 
with WER which indicates you are using Syncsort and not DFSORT 3. You don't 
need to use INCLUDE=ALL as it is the default to include all records for DFSORT 
4. The same is the case for specifying Files=OUT as SORTOUT is the default.

Either way if you need last month date, you need to use date2 parm but you need 
to use on inrec/outrec . 

I assumed that your input has an lrecl of 80 bytes and we put the previous 
month date at position 81 and remove it using BUILD on outfil

This is a working syntax for DFSORT, but i cannot comment on the other product

//SYSINDD * 
  SORT FIELDS=(1,2,CH,A)
  OUTREC OVERLAY=(81:DATE2-1) 
 
  OUTFIL BUILD=(1,80),
  HEADER1=('DATE',15:81,6)

Re: JCL IF Condition - I'm Missing Something

2017-02-17 Thread George, William@FTB
Thanks John
Actually I did see in my research of what I could be missing so one of my tests 
I placed another SORT step inside the THEN - ENDIF condition and it too was 
processed. That is, as mentioned the THEN condition always processed when the 
CHECKIF return code was RC=0. 
I probably should have shown that test without the SET inside the THEN path as 
the example. :(

JCL IF Condition - I'm Missing Something

2017-02-17 Thread George, William@FTB
The JCL below

1.   Sets symbolic  = "A"

2.   checks if a dataset exists,

3.   if it does exist it changes the symbolic  = "B"

4.   for the dataset used in the Step3.

However, processing ALWAYS falls into the THEN path even when the RC = 0.
What am I missing?
Note: this is just test JCL to verify the changing of the  symbolic works.
Thanks for any insights!

Bill,

Be aware that the list cat output *DOES* change and there is no warning from 
IBM.

Years ago someone bought a cheap listcat at a company I worked for (it was 
written in COBOL no less).
Once a year (or so it seemed) the utility would break. I would look at the 
source (they provided) and waste 1 or 2 hours of my time trying to debug it.
It was just not worth the $25.
Use the way Tom M suggested and it will eliminate 3AM calls.

I've only used it once, and don't remember having any trouble with it.

Why not use the Catalog Search Interface (IGGCSI00) rather than parse a LISTCAT

Mick, I was hoping there might be a sub-set of that in some manner where you 
could indicate a block of gens. But I knew even Santa could not bring me such a 
nifty command.  With some 500+ GDGs that soon each will have a LIMIT of 255.  I 
don't think bringing back, let's see... 500 * 245 (-10 as they probably have 
not migrated as yet) = HECK of a lot of new catalog entries... would not make 
our storage group pleased.   8-D
But it was certainly worth noting and I have used that at times.

It's also worth noting that you can use wild cards in the HRECALL data set name 
if you can be that generic, i.e. bring back ALL migrated generations with a 
single HRECALL command. I use it a lot to recall all my personal code libraries 
before I go on overnight call-out - I hate waiting for data set recalls when

Bottom Line: I am looking for a means to RECALL a block of migrated GDS (GDG

BACKGROUND
First, I'm in applications not systems.
Second, we are changing our storage management system where we must now define 
(and redefine existing) GDG's with SCRATCH.  Most were unfortunately defined 
with NOSCRATCH so there are a boatload of uncatalogued dataset on the system 
for those that fell out of the GDG's LIMIT parm. .Plus, our current FDR storage 
management system archives all the GDS' long before they would even drop off 
the LIMIT, but that is beside the point here other than setting the LIMIT 
really didn't have much priority because of this.. The point is our GDS are 
archived and are always available even GDS dropped off the LIMIT YEARS ago. 
This allowed us to go as far back a necessary to research issues. Now times are 
changing and Storage management, rightly so, wants to clean up all the 
uncatalogued datasets and fix this situation..
With the new system coming in the automatic FDR archiving of generation 
datasets is going away and as mentioned above, GDGs are to be defined with

via the LIMIT we will need to reassess the LIMIT option on them to allow for 
proper data recovery and research considerations. We frequently get requests to 
look back at old data for various reasons.

Our main concern are the GDS' allocated daily as we are required to have seven 
years of data available. We will update all pertinent daily GDGs to the max 
LIMIT of 255.  However, this only is 'about' one year's worth of data. We have 
some 500+ daily GDGs that have generations allocated. So backup/archiving of 
these is a necessity.

ISSUE:
The current plan is to run a month's end job to backup/archive all of the 
previous month's daily GDS into several ADRDSSU dump datasets with a naming 
convention that indicates what MM of data is contained within.  However, 
ADRDSSU will not pick up any dataset in a MIGRAT status. So these must be 
RECALL'ed prior to the dump.

QUESTION:
Is there a means to call in, or do a HRECALL on a block of GDS? For example

Apologies for not responding sooner but I did not notice this email to the IBM 
list until this morning.  The messages you are referring to are written through 
the SYSPRINT DD statement.  Generally there is a "//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*" 
statement in the JES2Mail JCL.  You can either remove this statement or dummy 
it out and that should suppress these messages.  The SYSPRINT messages are 
intended to be a summary of the activity that is reported in more detail in the

If need any further information on this, or any other JES2Mail matter, you can

We have several jobs that use JES2MAIL to email reports to various users.
The JES2 output (in SDSF) from the step creates two entries and I'm hoping to 
find a means to disable one of them.
The two entries are: (example SDSF entries further below)

1.  The main SYSOUT from the job that includes the JES2MAIL trace log

2.  And a second log that seems to contain all the "Non-ConMsg:" lines
found in the main trace log
Is there a means to disable the 2nd entry JES entry?
Why I find this strange as there is not a DD associated to it coded in the JCL 
to control it.

You control the characteristics of SYSOUT datasets with OUTPUT statments. In

No; SDSF is only the program that you used to view them.

JES2MAIL Log Output to Two SDSF Output Groups - How to Disable One

2015-11-02 Thread George, William@FTB
We have several jobs that use JES2MAIL to email reports to various users.
The JES2 output (in SDSF) from the step creates two entries and I'm hoping to 
find a means to disable one of them.
The two entries are: (example SDSF entries further below)

1.  The main SYSOUT from the job that includes the JES2MAIL trace log

2.  And a second log that seems to contain all the "Non-ConMsg:" lines 
found in the main trace log
Is there a means to disable the 2nd entry JES entry?
Why I find this strange as there is not a DD associated to it coded in the JCL 
to control it.

To attempt to show what I mean, as a test for the below example I ran JCL with 
just the JES2MAIL step.
The two entries were created below within SDSF.  Note: the entries are truncated
but only the TOTAL-REC and O-GRP-NM are different between the two.

Re: Emulator Screen Size with Attachmate Extra X-treme 9.3

2014-04-11 Thread George, William@FTB
Not real sure what you're asking so I'll go with;
The emulator offers the base models of:   Model 2 (24X80)  Model 3 (32x80), 
Model 4 (43X 80) and Model 5 (27x132).
As far as my site?  We are on z/OS 01.13.00 (ISPF 6.3),  VTAM 6.1.D so whatever 
these offer unless there is some system configuration member that limits modes. 
I understand there is a LOGMOD that allows for dynamic screen sizes but the 
emulator needs to be able to communicate with it.  I do recall in the past 
successfully logging on with that mode (which escapes me at the moment) but the 
emulator could not set any screen size other than the base ones shown above. 
This is outside my knowledge base but I have seen old posts on how to do it 
with other emulators but it seems Attachmate's Extra! X-treme does not have 
this ability as far as I can find.  This is why I'm asking and hoping someone 
has found a means to do this.

Thanks
Bill

 I was hoping there might be a config member that might allow tweaking beyond 
 what is offered on the base Display setup screen of the four base models.
 Note: I'm aware of other emulators that are quite flexible is screen size 
 configuration and would LOVE to be able to install such however we are locked 
 into using what is given us and app installs are shut off.

From a VTAM logon screen, this works for any screen size you can implement in 
your emulator, though I believe there is a limitation of maximum bytes per 
screen = 8192 (60 x 132 = 8184 bytes):

logon applid=TSO,logmode=D4C32XX3

That logmode is supplied by IBM by default unless your VTAM network 
administrator has deleted it.

If you have Netview Access or some other terminal distributor or interface this 
logmode may or may not be available to you.  I only know that it works from a 
VTAM logon screen.

Can't help with your Attachmate issue though, sorry.

 Missing a . after the stem name. Try:
 
 execio * DISKW outds (finis stem outvar.
 
 Just a word of caution, you should never use * for the number of records to 
 write with DISKW when using the STEM option.
 By REXX definition/usage a stem of the form stemname. should have a count 
 of the entries in the stem in variable stemname.0.  So in your example, 
 outvar.0 should contain the number of entries in the outvar. stem.  If you 
 are creating outvar. yourself, then you must keep count of the number of 
 entries you are creating and set outvar.0 to that number when you are done.  
 Your EXECIO command should then look like this:
 
 'EXECIO' outvar.0 'DISKW OUTDS (FINIS STEM OUTVAR.'
 
 So why not use *?  It will work most of the time and some of you are 
 probably using it now with no problems.  From the TSO REXX Reference on 
 EXECIO:
 
 STEM var-name
 the stem of the list of variables from which information is to be 
 written. To write information from compound variables, which allow for 
 indexing, the var-name should end with a period, MYVAR., for example. 
 When three lines are written to the data set, they are taken from 
 MYVAR.1, MYVAR.2, MYVAR.3. When * is specified as the number of lines 
 to write, the EXECIO command stops writing information to the data set 
 when it finds a null line or an uninitialized compound variable. In 
 this case, if the list contained 10 compound variables, the EXECIO 
 command stops at MYVAR.11.
 
 The 0th variable has no effect on controlling the number of lines 
 written from variables.
 . . . .
 
 Let's say you have a REXX program that reads several different files/members 
 and writes those files/members to different outputs.  You read the 
 file/member into a stem using DISKR and write the same stem out using DISKW 
 and *.
 
 'EXECIO * DISKR FILEIN (FINIS STEM REC.' /* Lets say 20 records were 
 read, rec.0 = 20  */
 'EXECIO * DISKW FILEOUT (FINIS STEM REC.' /* Writes 20 records out 
 because rec.21 is unassigned rec.21 = 'REC.21' */
 (allocate new files to FILEIN and FILEOUT)
 'EXECIO * DISKR FILEIN (FINIS STEM REC.' /* Lets say 10 records were 
 read, rec.0 = 10 */
 'EXECIO * DISKW FILEOUT (FINIS STEM REC.' /* Writes 20 records out!  
 rec.1-rec.10 from current file, rec.11-rec.20 from previous file!  */
 'EXECIO' rec.0 'DISKW FILEOUT (FINIS STEM REC.'  /* Writes 10 records 
 out */
 
 Of course, you could do a REXX Drop rec. command between the reads and that 
 would allow * to work, but why bother?

If you have SAS that's pretty easy. Somewhat like

data _null_ ;
  length gdgdsn $44 ;
  infile gdgddn filename=gdgdsn ;
  input ;
  if index(_infile_,'your_search_string_here') ;
  file outddn ;
  put gdgdsn $44. +1 _infile_ ;
run ;

Infile option FILENAME= identifies the respective catenands
of your gdg concatentation. The IF statement in this simple
form is referred to as 'subsetting if' ie. it works like
a filter.


Kind regards

George ,

Just  to clarify ICEMAN is the program name for DFSORT. You can invoke
DFSORT with PGM=ICEMAN. DFSORT's official three character identifier is
ICE, so all of the DFSORT modules start with ICE (ICEMAN, ICETOOL,
ICEGENER, etc) and all of the DFSORT messages start with ICE (ICExxxs).
other sort products(Syncsort, ca-sort) use (SORT,ICEMAN) as an alias.

Coming to your requirement, it is quite easy with batch version of
Extended Search-For Utility (3.15). The String found indicator is
mentioned by a numeric and at the bottom of the listing you will find
corresponding dataset name.


//SEARCH  EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,PARM=(SRCHCMP,'') 
//NEWDD   DD DSN=Your GDG Base name, 
//   DISP=SHR 
//OUTDD  DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN  DD *
SRCHFOR  'your search string'

I'm doing something similar.
I have one job with 50 steps. The output dataset is the same in all

Each step has an OUTREC statement that tacks on to the end of the output

Just was hoping to be able to do this in one step.

Re: ISPF simple question

2012-12-14 Thread George, William@FTB
Couple of quick thoughts.
- Make sure you are actually logging off and not just killing your
session. Profile vars are NOT saved if you do not log off properly.
- Also, check to see if there is not an initial macro running that sets
that to PAGE.  More likely something like this if others are having an
issue.

Hi List,

I am going to show my ISPF ignorance on this question.  I have a system
I'm working on that has the scroll amount set to PAGE.  I can change the
scroll amount to CSR and it works as advertised.  However, when I log
off and back onto the system, it is set back to PAGE.  I had thought
that if I changed it to CSR, that would be saved in my ISPPROF dataset
and be there the next time I logged in.

I have checked the obvious, the ISPPROF isn't being deleted/recreated
when I log in, I have update access to it.Anybody care to share some
words of wisdom as to what I could change here to make it save my
preferences?  I have checked and I'm not the only one on this system
that is having this problem.

Thanks.

SARBCH - PRINT all SEQ's of a GEN= for jobs

2012-10-23 Thread George, William@FTB
Is there a means via a single SARBCH command to print all SEQs of a GEN=
for a job.  (that was hard to put words to make sense ;-)  )

That is, if a job executed multiple times during a batch cycle and each
time it was archived to SAR it received the same GEN= number each would
receive a sequential sequence number. 

JOBNAME  GEN=1000 SEQ=1 

JOBNAME  GEN=1000 SEQ=2

JOBNAME  GEN=1000 SEQ=3

 

I would like to be able to PRINT (LOAD actually) these to a dataset via
a single SARBCH command.

e.g.   LOAD ID=JOBNAME GEN=100 SEQ=??? DDNAME=ddname

 

I've tried  SEQ=*,   SEQ=1:3,  no SEQ=...

The first two receiving an Invalid Sequence parameter error and the
last retrieving the most current (SEQ=3)

 

I do know a LIST on the job with GEN=1000 and no SEQ will list each time
it ran within a GEN with their sequence numbers. With this info I could
construct another SARBCH job with 3 individual PRINT commands, one for
each SEQ number. However,  due to how the process is setup, is all done
in REXX, it would add a tremendous amount of overhead to LIST each job
first, read in the results, then construct another SARBCH from the LIST
results.  There are about 70 jobs I have to extract SAR reports from and
doing a single PRINT (or LOAD) would be FAR more efficient.

 

Any insights?

Yes, it does just toss it out as an error and keeps going. And I've
considered this and I may have to resort to it.  It is just that the
SYSIN for my process already is darned huge and this would enlarge it
tenfold if I did up to 10 SEQ for each... but... I may just have to.

What happens if you ask for seq=4 when there are only 3 versions? If it
just tosses an error message and goes to the next commend, why not just
submit 100 commands asking for seq=1 to seq=100. Once it has processed
all the existent sequences, it will just ignore the requests for the
non-existent ones.

Just a small opinion here. Sometimes its better to bite the bullet  
and do a clean install. That is now you got a good base to play with.
Ed

Ed

Nothing really to clean install that I can think of.  If we remove
Design\1 and Install\1 from CiCS we'll have hundreds of programs to
rework to do the navigation logic and CICS calls that Install\1 was (is)
doing in its black box.  Not to mention the building of the BMS map
source for the hundreds of maps. Install\1 keeps the map source hidden
within its box also so we would have to use DFHBMSUP to recreate them
which will be a piece of work as the utility does not carry over all the
field names and give them generic names.  
Hence, my inquiry to anyone that may have gone through this and hoping
for a better way. 

Thanks

It appears the E15 exit will not work for our needs.  And I humbly
apologize as the example I gave was far too simplistic and I left off
some of the requirements that make the E15 exit 'probably' not doable.  
- First of all the E15 requires the creation of another program which is
one thing we do not care to do.  
- Secondly, the data item we would like to save and utilize actually
will only be used within the HEADER record for any OUTFILs that do not
have records in the input file.  That is, if an OUTFIL has zero records
written then the HEADER and TRAILER written for it will have a count of
0.  But... we would like the saved data (a date range) to be plugged
into the Header title area. This date is part of the input record and
works fine for OUTFIL groups with an input record but when the HEADER is
written for the OUTFIL groups when there are zero input records for the
group, this data is not available.

Use an E15 exit to read the input file, store the value you need to
preserve and on each successive record just overwrite with the saved
value and pass the record to sort.

I have a few examples of E15 exit code but the SYNCSORT manual should
have some examples of exit code.

 For example.

 1.   Input 1 - 07/06/2012 asfasdlfjl.   (save the date
 07/06/2012 and not output the record)

 2.   Input 2 - poiutkjgfertqe   Output - 07/06/2012
 poiutkjgfertqe...
 That is, place the saved data item (date) someplace in the output

 3.   Input 3 - (same as #2 and to the end of file)

SYNCSORT - Save a data item for use in OUTREC output

2012-07-06 Thread George, William@FTB
Is there a means via SYNCSORT to save a data item found on the 1st input
record and then have it placed on all subsequent output records.

 

For example.

 

1.   Input 1 - 07/06/2012 asfasdlfjl.   (save the date
07/06/2012 and not output the record)

2.   Input 2 - poiutkjgfertqe   Output - 07/06/2012
poiutkjgfertqe...
That is, place the saved data item (date) someplace in the output record


3.   Input 3 - (same as #2 and to the end of file)



Thanks for any insights.
