While using ISRSUPC utility for SUPERC on 2 flat files, the job abends with MAXCC=28 if the files are empty. I am comparing multiple files in multiple steps (under same JCL) and error in a step stops JCL there itself (without executing further).
Although this is not the case when we do it manually through 3.12 option. It shows that 0 records matched so that we come to know that both the files are empty and thus same.
Can anybody please help to identify a way to verify and compare empty files as well (along with files with records) in batch?
Let me know if I had missed any required information. |

There must be something in the documentation.
If you want to continue your job after receiving a return-code of 28, I don't see that it would be a problem, all the steps are independent of each other. In fact, unless you have JCL to stop this happening, it would be the default behaviour for any non-abend in a completing step (it would just run the next step), wouldn't it? |

Hi Bill,
Thanks for your reply.
The JCL which I am using do not execute second step if first step fails.
My JCL,
| Code: |
//**************************************************************
//* STEP : COMPARE FFB FILES
//**************************************************************
//STEP010 EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,
// PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'',''),COND=(0,NE)
//OLDDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=FFB.FILE1
//NEWDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=FFB.FILE2
//OUTDD DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
CMPCOLM 1:80
//*
//**************************************************************
//* STEP : COMPARE FFB FILES
//**************************************************************
//STEP020 EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,
// PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'',''),COND=(0,NE)
//OLDDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=FFB.FILE3
//NEWDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=FFB.FILE4
//OUTDD DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
CMPCOLM 1:80
//*

Spool:

|
As shown above, STEP010 fails and as such STEP020 is not executed.
Any expected reason? |

If your steps are independent of each other, then there is no need of COND of any sort on them.
The second step is not running because it has been told not to. |

Well, no, it does not abend - it gives a return code and carries on. An abend will terminate the step prematurely - your step completes 'normally' with a non-zero return code to let you know that something not disasterous happened that you may like to look at. |
