Hi Frank,
Thanks for the quick reply,the Sysout of the particular job is having having only the Sysin SORT CARD.
************************************************************
PRODUCT LICENSED FOR CPU SERIAL NUMBER 18715, MODEL 2094 705
SYSIN :
RECORD TYPE=V
SORT FIELDS=(05,8,BI,A)
************************************************************
The issue has been resolved after i gave a dasd GDG instead of the temporary file.
Can you please clear my below doubts

Is there any limit for Temporary files?
If so how much is the limit? in MB or KB
Is there any other way of resolving this error?
Are Installation Parameters decide the size of the Temporary Files?
(I am using Syncsort)

Thanks & Regards,
Mani

Mani,

I'm a DFSORT developer. DFSORT and Syncsort are competitive products. I'm happy to answer questions on DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, but I don't answer questions on Syncsort.

The error u r getting because of SPACE problem..

1) Increase SORTWK01 , SORTWK02 ........TO SORTWK15

2) Increase the SPACE for SORTOUT..

3) SPACE PARAM u can code like this, ,SPACE=(CYL,(100,50),RLSE)

Try all these three options, still problem, increase the SPACE at SORTOUT DD Statement SPACE=(CYL,(200,150),RLSE) ..

Still problem ,, increase some more SPACE...

Still post the SYSOUT with full information...

cheers

You can use up to 255 work data sets.
