Hi,
my sort program looks like this,
//act001 exec pgm=sort
//sortin dd dsn=abc.xyz.pqr.aug05,disp=shr
//sortout dd dsn=...............,disp=shr
//......
//.....
so,every month suffix of sortin dd name should be changed.
i.e., next month my sortin dd name should be
//sortin dd dsn=abc.xyz.pqr.sep05
how can i get this
regards,
santhosh |

Hi
U can write define ur files in a proc and use symbolic parameters there, else u can also use overriding parameters. Bt u need to pass values every month, it can't just change the name of the file by itself.
Plz let me know if there's some other way out.

to avoid such manual efforts we use generation datasets! Try using them then no one needs to manually update the name of the dataset in the JCL.

As varun_sharma mentioned, you're going to have to create and use symbolic parameters. My thought - keep the value you want in a library and use a combination of JCLLIB, SET, and INCLUDE statements:
The library:
| Code: |
'MY.PDS(SUFFIX)' contains the one record:
// SET SUFF=SEP05
|
The job:
| Code: |
//MYJOB JOB (....),CLASS=X
//*
// JCLLIB ORDER=MY.PDS
// INCLUDE MEMBER=SUFFIX
//*
//ACT001 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SORTIN DD DSN=ABC.XYZ.PQR.&SUFF,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=...............,DISP=SHR

Hi Santhosh,
First Execute Cobol Program For Updating SUFF & Next step use SUFF[UPDATED VALUE]
COBOL PROGRAM STEPS
------------------------------
| Code: |
1) ACCEPT CURRENT DATE & MONTH [SYSTEM DATE]
a) Split date & Month
2) CHANGE SYSTEM DATE & SYSTEM MONTH TO USER FORMAT
EX
IF MONTH = 04 THEN MOVE 'APR' TO MONTH1
3) Write updated value to PS or PDS Member. |
Let Me know If u need full coding for this |

ksreddy, the frustrating part of a post such as this is that you have not indicated what might be acceptable, what options you have already tried and rejected, and how you might want this to work in a production environment.
Why can't your job scheduling system (CA-7, CA-Scheduler, CA-JobTrac, Control-M, TWS/OPC) provide this information in the form of a symbolic variable to the job? That is one of their primary purposes.
If you have already ruled out that option, and the option Superk provided, then you are restricting your options to two methods.
One, dynamically allocate the SORTIN dataset and run SORT using the dynamically allocation:
| Code: |
//STEP0001 EXEC PGM=ICEGENER
//SYSUT1 DD DATA,DLM=@@
/* REXX */
CURR_MMM = LEFT(DATE(M),3)
CURR_YY = LEFT(DATE(J),2)
"ALLOC DD(SORTIN) DA('ABC.XYZ.PQR."CURR_MMM||CURR_YY"') SHR"
IF RC <> 0 THEN EXIT 4
"CALL *(SORT)"
EXIT 0
@@
//SYSUT2 DD DSN=&&PDS(GETDATE),DISP=(,PASS),UNIT=VIO,
// SPACE=(TRK,(1,1,1),RLSE)
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//*
//STEP0002 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,PARM='%GETDATE'
//SYSPROC DD DSN=&&PDS,DISP=(OLD,PASS)
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD DUMMY
//SORTOUT DD DSN=SORTOUT.DATASET,...
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
...
/*
|
two, build and submit the entire job (or portions of the job) programatically. |
