Hi,
For creation of a new PS dataset, if i mention (NEW,CATLG,DELETE) OR (NEW,KEEP,DELETE), what will happen. What is the difference there please explain. I also want to use that file in other job. |

Hi Subhasis,
DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE) means that you are going to create a new data set and if your step terminates normally that data set would be CATALOGED other wise it would be deleted.
For DISP=(NEW,KEEP,DELETE)
KEEP does not imply CATLG. As a result, DISP=(NEW,KEEP) should be rarely used because next time you retrieve the dataset, you need to specify UNIT and VOL=SER.
regards,
David. |
