Is "generate fields" something less than terra-forming. . .?

Hello Pandey and welcome to the forum,

In order to get a more useful reply, you need to be more clear wiuth your question.

Suggest you post the jcl and control statements where you found this and what your question is about what you found. Someone here should be able to clarify.
