You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for. I assumed your input file has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, but the job can be changed appropriately for other attributes.

Well, your input example isn't very good because it only has one '2' record for each group, but ...
The GROUP clause puts puts an id in positions 81-89 for each "group" of records. A group of records starts with a '0' in position 1. So after the INREC statement is processed, the first group of records (0, 2, 9) will have an 00000001 id, the second group of records will have a 00000002 id, etc.
Now we sort on the group id in 81-89 to keep the groups in order and then we sort on your other fields to sort the '2' records in the correct order within each group. Then we remove the group id.
