Can we use like syntax for using the attributes of a VSAM file?
my code
//JS0020 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//INFILE DD DUMMY
//OUTFILE DD DSN=ECSA30T.CFAS.&USERID..DETLMAST,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// LIKE=ECSA30T.CFAS.ECF901T.DETLMAS1
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DSN=ECFAPST.PROD.CNTLLIB(REPRO),DISP=SHR
//**
where ECSA30T.CFAS.ECF901T.DETLMAS1 is a VSAM file.I am using this way as to handle the symbolic parameters in the job or else i would have directly defined in sysin card.
Thanks,
Prashant |

| The output file is creating but as sequential file not as a VSAM file. |

| And I assume that you modelled the new file on a VSAM file, because I just tried it with a KSDS and it worked OK. |

I always thought that any VSAM dataset can also be fully defined just using the proper DD statement parameters. |

| Yes, most of us are zOS users so our solutions are biased usually. |
