Temp1 DD DSN=X.&Y.&Z

| You cannot use a symbolic parameter as a step name or DD name. You can, however, use ISPF file tailoring or equivalent to choose the name. |

Hello,

Why does someone believe this is a requirement?
Post the jcl from the step where this is "needed". |

You can use a symbolic to decide which of a set of DD's you use. If you specify VAR=TEMP1 the TEMP1 DD would be used, or TEMP would point to the TEMP2 DD
//X PROC VAR=
//TEMP DD DDNAME=&VAR
//TEMP1 DD *
//TEMP2 DD * |
