I have a COBOL program which has a Internal SORT logic. I'm calling this program from multiple jobs and if I run this multiple segmented jobs at the same time, I'm getting an Contention abend on the SORT output file. I'm looking for how to override the internal Output file which is used in the program.

Can someone help please?

Full error message, please. JCL for abending step and "contending" step. SDs and all code relevant to the internal SORT. Sort messages from both steps.

Is the Linux running on a mainframe? Even then, perhaps not much experience of that here.

You're probably best looking for a Micro Focus group/Linux group.
