Hi,

I defined one GDG like DEV2.RK.BASE with limit 10 and SCRATCH.

Now i want to increase the limit to 20 without deleting the old one.

Can we do that in JCL?

Regards
R KARTHIK

karthik,

Use IDCAMS ALTER command for the same.

Code:

//STEP  EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSIN DD *
ALTER MY.GDG.BASE LIMIT(X)
/*



X - new limit
