Veena,
Following step returns '4', if the no of records are greater than 1 and '0' if the record count is equal to 1.
| Code: |
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//INPUT DD * <-- I/P file
004102007 PGM1
004102007 PGM1
/*
//TOOLIN DD *
COUNT FROM(INPUT) HIGHER(1) RC4
/* |

We can verify empty file. Single you know it already. What do you mean by mandatory record types? |

File empty and non-empty conditions are contradicting. Its a bad idea to verify same file for these conditions.
Anyways Krisprems had given the link. Verify that.

Sticky's are available in DFSORT forum for ref materials. |

veena_nagesh2002,
Note that DFSORT's ICETOOL will return the highest return code it sets as the return code of the job. So if it sets RC=12 for one operator and RC=4 for another operator, the return code for the job will be 12. Also note that once ICETOOL sets RC=12 for an operator it will stop executing the remaining operators unless you use MODE CONTINUE.
It's still not clear to me exactly what you want to do. Perhaps if you explained it in more detail, I could help you figure out how to do what you want to do. |

This quote from your first post suggest that you want to check for empty/non-empty file.
But this
| Quote: |
| could you please tell me for the condition on empty and for single record, |
is bit confusing..one record or many..file is not empty, what are you lokking for?
I think, you need to do somthing like:
| Code: |
if one-record-in-input
do this
else-if two-records
do this
else-if
do this
end-if. |
If so..don't you think that it's a bit prgramatic approach rather than JCL one. |

Hello,
FWIW, i'd suggest looking at the design and implementing a consistent procedure that is not sensitive to zero, one, many, or record-types in "the file".
Even when this is all "working", i suspect it will be met with problems when it is in maintenance or needs to be "enhanced". I'm also not sure if there might be restart "opportunities" as well.
Many systems have met whatever this business requirement is without needing to use this method. |

I suspect that it can be a business requirement , however if yes..would like to know a bit about such a system, even via PM. |

Any reason for not starting a 'new topic'.
This was discussed earlier. Search DFSORT forum.
Clue: Searchword - 'trailer1'. |

Please define/provide your requirements clearly.
If its the "same" requirement then the "same" solution should work for you. Above comments from Frank applies to you as well, you should have started new topic.
Thanks, |
