Hi,

Suppose In proc I want to override DSN name
for ex: //DATA1 DD DSN=X.Y.Z, DISP=SHR
so I want to override X.Y.Z with A.B.C How u will do it?

In the calling JCL, you will specify

//STEPXXXX EXEC PROCXXXX
//PROCSTEP.DATA1 DD DSN=A.B.C,DISP=SHR

Hi,

We can omit the DISP parameter in overrides. Default is defined in the PROC/JOB.

Hi,

You are welcome..BTW, we can not use overrides in 'nested' PROCs... gotcha..
