Hi all,

Please help me with this query.
This is my JCL
Code:
STEP005  EXEC  PGM=plipgm1
STEPLIB  DD DSN=AAA.BBB.CCC.LOAD,DISP=SHR               
INFILE   DD DSN=AAA.BBB.CCC.INPUT(0),DISP=SHR
REPORT  DD DSN=AAA.BBB.CCC.REPORT(+1),     
            DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),                         
            UNIT=(SYSDA,5),                                   
            SPACE=(CYL,(10,10)),                             
            LRECL=133,BLKSIZE=0,RECFM=FB
SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*


In the above JCL AAA.BBB.CCC.INPUT(0), is my input file(GDG)."plipgm" is the PL/I program. It takes the last input file and processes. I'm generating a report AAA.BBB.CCC.REPORT(+1).
In that report I want to print for which input GDG the report is generated.

Thank you.

Hi bhagyac !

You could call a Assembler-Programm. This one could read the JobFileControlBlocks via RDJFCB / IHADCB to extract the komplete DSN, wich is allocated by the system.

Mostly companies have build some UtilityProgramms like this.
Ask your pers for such a programm.

You can with REXX
Code:
X   = LISTDSI("DUMPREF  FILE")
DUMPDSN = SYSDSNAME

You could use the following to get the genetation number into a file, then process that file how you need to in your report:
Code: //STEP10  EXEC PGM=IDCAMS                               
//DD1       DD DSN=AAA.BBB.CCC.INPUT(0),DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT  DD DSN=HLQ...,
//             DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),         
//             UNIT=DISK,SPACE=(TRK,(1,1),RLSE),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FB,...)
//SYSIN     DD *                                         
 PRINT INFILE(DD1) COUNT(0) CHAR                         
/*
