Hi

I need a jcl for the below purpose.

1) I have sequential file which contain the table names.
2) I have to compare these table with one system to other system as per my requirement and I need to verify whether the two tables are in sync.
3) Some times my sequential file contain more than 50 tables.

Please let me know is this possible through the jcl? that to using the PARM?

Once more let us clarify exactly what JCL is.

it is Job Control Language.

By itself it does nothing. It is used to invoke the chosen program and to define which datasets are to be used by the DD names associated with the chosen program.

JCL does not have magical powers that solve all problems, JCL is merely the vehicule for telling the processor which program you want it to execute.

So, if you might just care to tell us which program you wish the JCL to execute, we might be able to help you

And once you've decided which utility (or program) will do this, are you aware that PARM is limited to 100 bytes?

Table-names from other system are also in some file? Then what is next? How do you conclude "they are in sync"? icon_confused.gif

It depends which program is being executed in the JCL.

1. Do you mean DB2 tables ?
2. Can you access both systems simultaneously ?
3. Table names are the same, only system name is different?
Answering these questions will help us in designating the program(s) to use,
but you will certainly need a tool to repeat the process for each table in the sequential file.
