Ah. Well, DFSORT has an ABEND/NOABEND option. Has SyncSort?

With NOABEND, you get the RC=16, for DFSORT.

Hello,

The latest Syncsort documentation does not contain NOABEND.

Wonder if the problem has been corrected and the job successfully run?

ok Bill.......I understood it now......I kept the same data in 01 and 02 and got MAXCC=0 and ran again with earlier data and got U0016.....earlier I was expecting to see MAXCC=16

Thanks a lot for your time and help.

Me too :-)

Now go and fix-up your JOINKEYS version with trailers included, The trailers will give you a point at which you can say "ah, I have a dodgy count, now I mustn't write one record to a dummy file, or, I don't have a dodgy count, so I must write one record to a dummy file" and then the empty/non-empty OUTFIL file will get a non-zero RC (four or 12, sorry about that).

@ramsri,

You simply MUST stop using really bad terminology.

Syncsort DOES NOT EVER set MAXCC. Ever.

As you continue to use bad terminology all you do is cause lost time when people try to help you.

Except when IDCAMS is involved, I assume the constant references to MAXCC come from the NOTIFY message.

Yup, when IDCAMS is involved - but Never with Syncsort.

Ramsri and other simply refuse to learn/use what is proper and for people who have been working on the mainframe for several years, there is no excuse.

I have been very tempted to lock topics for repeat offenders with a note and let them re-post using the correct terms. . .
