There is nothing intresting.

It is exactly as gcicchet already mentioned some post's before.

If you have a clear look at the JCL of srramesh and Gousiya Mulla,
you could see the difference.

Add space-parameter in the delete-step, and that's it.

Hello srramesh,

As you've been asked before - do not use images/screen captures to show your info. Used the "Code" tag on the Reply panel.

If other posts arrive with images, they will be deleted.

Hi Gousiya,

your post will not work even though you say it worked.

//STEPDEL1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//FILE1 DD DSN=TFPZ.TEST5.FILE
//STEPDEL1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//OUTFILE DD DSN=TFPZ.TEST5.FILE,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(TRK,(5,3),RLSE),
// DCB=(DSORG=PS,RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=800)
//*

In step STEPDEL1 you have not coded any disposition, the only reason it worked is because the file did not exist, no disp defaults to
DISP=(NEW,DELETE), had the file existed it would have resulted in a JCL error, duplicate name.
