manojtyagi_09,
How about a JCL like this?
| Code: |
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//DD1 DD DSN=XXXX.TEST.GDG(+1),
// DISP=(,CATLG),DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80),SPACE=(TRK,(0,0))
//DD2 DD DSN=XXXX.TEST.GDG(+2),
// DISP=(,CATLG),DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80),SPACE=(TRK,(0,0))
...................
...................
//DD24 DD DSN=XXXX.TEST.GDG(+24),
// DISP=(,CATLG),DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80),SPACE=(TRK,(0,0))

Hi,
What is SLE002 ?
Further, I'm pretty sure here -
you wanted to say "Generation". |

Are you referring to the V00 part as the "version" or you meant "version" instead of "generation"
Generation and version are different and these terms have always been messed up. |

This creates different "generations" for the current version and not different "versions" as asked by the OP.
This was discussed yesterday. refer to yesterday's posts on this topic. |

I was talking about generations only version number is not important to me.
Thank you all I got the solution by using IEFBR14 with GDgbase(+1) , (+2) etc ....
SLE002 we are using this utlity to check whether a File is empty, not empty or not cataloged and gives different return codes for each condition. I think this is project specific to us. |

But, You had mentioned it wrongly in the first post. Use correct terms so that people don't get confused.

Quiz question of the week.........................
With a properly thought out application in place, why would you have a requirement to create 20+ EMPTY GDG generations ? |

Hello,
Even with an improperly thought out process, this is confusing. Fortunately, i will not need to maintain/support it. I'm not sure how the gdg could be used in this manner. . .
If we understood the actual requirement, we might be able to offer alternative suggestions. |
