Hi,

I've not had much experience at writing DFSORT SYSIN cmds beyond the real basic cmds, so I was wondering if someone could provide some assistance.

I'm trying to extract certain records from the VSI data returned from a BVIR request against a VTS cluster in a IBM GRID.

The input dset is LRECL=640,RECFM=FB.

Here are 2 sample records:

Code:
H10001,0,2011-04-29-12.05.40.954341,-1,-1,-1,0,Y,94,N,133,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,I,D,N,N,N,N,N,N,W,....... (don't care about the rest)
H10084,0,2011-11-19-08.52.14.532215,-1,-1,-1,0,N,110,N,130,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,I,D,D,N,N,N,N,N,N,......

* The 1st 5 records in the dset are header or info records and can be skipped.

What I'm after are just those records that have either either W or M in field %28 (the last field shown in the examples above).

In the output record I want to keep fields:

%01, %02, %03, %08, %10, %12, %13, %14, %20, %21, %22 & %28

and for the output record to be blank delimited rather than comma delimited:

Code:
H10001 0 2011-04-29-12.05.40.954341 Y N N N N I D N N W
H10084 0 2011-11-19-08.52.14.532215 N N N N N I D D N N

There is no need to sort the output records.

Thankyou
Barry...

to help people willing to answer understand better the data
it would be thoughtful to enclose the data within the code tags in order to preserve the alignment

Code:

//VSIDATA EXEC PGM=SORT                     
//SYSOUT   Dd DSN=an output dataset                       
//SORTIN   DD DSN=your dsn etc
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                       
//SYSIN    DD *                           
  OPTION COPY,SKIPREC=5   
  INREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=6), 
               %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1), 
               %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=26)),
        BUILD=(%01,X,%02,X,%03)                   
//*


You could experiment with something along the lines of the above.

Barry,

The number of % fields you say you want is 12, but your output shows 13 fields. Assuming you do want the 12 fields you listed, you can use a DFSORT job like the following. If you want 13 fields, change appropriately.

Code:

//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=...  input file (FB/640)
//SORTOUT DD DSN=...  output file (FB/640)
//SYSIN DD *
  OPTION COPY,SKIPREC=5
  INREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=10),
               %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=26),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %08=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %10=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %12=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %13=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %14=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %20=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %21=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %22=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C','),
               %=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
               %28=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1)),
  BUILD=(%01,X,%02,X,%03,X,%08,X,%10,X,
         %12,X,%13,X,%14,X,%20,X,%21,X,
         %22,X,%28)
  OUTFIL INCLUDE=(57,1,SS,EQ,C'WM'),
    BUILD=(1,57,SQZ=(SHIFT=LEFT,MID=C' '),640:X)

Thankyou Enrico for fixing up my post.

Frank,

Thanks VERY, VERY Muchly.

You are correct in that I only want 12 fields not 13.

Although the 1st field is only 6 bytes not 10, after fixing that & the OUTFIL stmt accordingly your code worked perfectly. Again thankyou.

Barry...
