Viresh,
| Code: |
//CHKDS EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *
LISTDS 'ISTEST.MURALI#'
/* |
The above step throws maxcc 8, if the dataset is a non existent one. |

Hi,
u can also use IDCAMS utility with LISTCAT if there is no file then the RC will be 8. |

Hello,
Keep in mind that you can do nothing after the jcl error occurs - the job is already terminated. One of the above suggestions could be placed in the step immediately before the problem step and the job could proceed accordingly.
Please clarify this

as i am unclear on what it means. . .
I'd suggest resolving the issue with the "missing" dataset. Why is it missing? |

Its for Catalog procedure,As symbolica paramerters cant be use in catalog procedure.As my Dtaset name will change according to the TDate varibale(Daily).
The options are working for instream procedure , but not catalog procedure.
Is there any way to check in catalog procedures.?
Thanks |

Shouldn't it be an RC of 4 for non-existing files and ) for existing ones ?..

Hello,
Symbolic parameters can be used in cataloged procedures. Who said that they cannot?
By "instream", do you mean proc&pend?

is inconsistent. If it really is an instream proc, it will work like a cataloged proc.
Please post "both" sets of jcl and any error messages you received. |

I have one proc , that 3 steps are there.I want to check the dataset availability for the 1st step , and according to it, I want to send email notification.I can't use symbolic parameters in the Proc , say i have proc 'x' in that i need to check the dataset availability.I cant give
//SYSIN DD *
LISTCAT ENTRIES('dataset name')
IF MAXCC=8 THEN SET MAXCC=4
My Query, how to give in catalog procedure, as i f create another member and give the LISTCAT ENTRIES('dataset name')
IF MAXCC=8 THEN SET MAXCC=4
, I t will trow error as my dataset name is everyday changing accordign to the date. |

Hi Dick,
one doubt in what u said..
My JCL for dataset checking is this..
| Code: |
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSIN DD *
LISTCAT ENT(XXXXX.YYYYYY.ZZZZZZ.DDMM)
/*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//* |
So if i am getting this dataset
" XXXXX.YYYYYY.ZZZZZZ.DDMM " from the previous step and
in the previous step this DDMM is given as a symbolic parameter which changes everyday, then how do i code my IDCAMS step ?
Hope I am clear with my question... |

Raak, a very good question.
If you can get the variable dataset name into a dataset with a couple of spaces and close bracket, then you can use this with IDCAMS.
The example below is creating the dataset in the same job, but will hopefully show the principle of the idea. Give it a try.
| Code: |
//IEBGENER EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT2 DD DSN=&&TEMP,DISP=(,PASS),
// SPACE=(TRK,(2,2),RLSE),
// RECFM=FB,LRECL=80
//SYSUT1 DD *
your dataset name )
/*
//*
//IDCAMS01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
LISTC ENT( -
// DD DSN=&&TEMP,DISP=(OLD,DELETE)
)
/*

We can send the Instream Data thru a Dataset rite...
i.e
| Code: |
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DSN=TESTHLQ.TESTLLQ.TLLQ1,DISP=SHR
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
|
File TESTHLQ.TESTLLQ.TLLQ1 will contain
| Code: |
LISTCAT ENT(XXXXX.YYYYYY.ZZZZZZ.DDMM)
|
The file will get updated every time the job gets submitted and the parm file need to be updated with the sort utility or wat ever u like.. with the Dataset name created with DDMM...
If i am wrong correct me.... |
