I am sure there is a simple (ICETOOL) resolution to this issue. I resolved using a SORT/IDCAMS (REPRO) combination. I am curious though as to what the ICETOOL resolution would be.

Initially I was using ICETOOL to create a VSAM file with (I have included the Jobdeck and ICETOOL control cards).

//STEP03 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD DSN=TEST.EYEWEAR.FLAT.FILE,
// DISP=OLD
//OUT DD DSN=TEST.EYEWEAR.VSAM,
// DISP=
//TOOLIN DD *
SORT FROM(IN)-
TO(OUT)-
USING(SORT)
//SORTCNTL DD *
SORT FIELDS=(8,7,CH,A)
//*

I ran the job twice and each time w/ the same results.

Bill,

Did you look up the ICE077A error message? Here's a link:

publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ICE1CM20/2.2.76?SHELF=&DT=20060721170811&CASE=

I can't tell if your TEST.EYEWEAR.FLAT.FILE is FB or VB. If it's VB, then perhaps you forgot to add 4 to the starting position of the key to account for the RDW.

I "Googled" the ICE077A the first hit on the list referred me to a "Build of Index failed". Now I know that the file was not in the correct order.

Is there an ICETOOL error msg board?

Oh yeah the "flat file" was FB.

I don't know what you mean by an "ICETOOL error message board" - ICE077A is a DFSORT message, not an ICETOOL message. ICETOOL messages are ICE6xxs.

A lesson in looking up DFSORT messages:

DFSORT is an IBM product. The messages for IBM products are easily accessible. Google is NOT the first choice for finding IBM messages.

The easiest way to look up an IBM message is to use IBM's LookAt facility at:

www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/bkserv/lookat/

Everyone should bookmark this.

You just choose the version of z/OS you want, e.g. V1R6, type the message into the message ID box (ICE077A in this case) and hit enter and the message text is displayed.

The other easy way to look up DFSORT messages is in "z/OS DFSORT Messages, Codes and Diagnosis Guide" which you can access along with all the other DFSORT books from:

Use [URL] BBCode for External Links

Click on "Messages and Codes", then "Informational and Error Messages" and you'll get a clickable list of the DFSORT messages. Here's the direct link:
