Currently i am using fileaid to copy one dataset to other dataset depending on the control card. But, during copying if any condition does not matches, my job is abending.
Now, i want to change the fileaid to syncsort to resolve my abend. or is there any better method to avoid the abend.
can anyone send me the complete step. |

yes... in this example the step would return a r.c. 4 if no records are selected.
| Code: |
//ICEMAN EXEC PGM=ICEMAN,PARM='NULLOUT=RC4'
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
CCESTACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INCLUDE COND=(1,80,SS,EQ,C'XYZ') |

Hello,

Suggest you run a very small experiment on your system executing ICETOOL. Then look at the informational messages created by the run.
Surprise. . .  |

acevedo,
How is that Syncsort ? ICEMAN invokes DFSORT. I think amitchadha30
is right, there are shops which want to move away from DFSORT and adopt Syncsort, hence they dont allow ICETOOLs to be moved to production.
Any corrections ? |

PGM=ICEMAN and PGM=SORT invoke the sort product installed at your site. That could be DFSORT, Syncsort or CA-Sort. You can tell which product you're using by looking at the messages - ICExxxs for DFSORT, WERxxxs for Syncsort, CASxxxs for CA-Sort. |

Agreed with everything posted so far, but anyhow I've a feeling if you can post Your FileAid Step with what is input & expected output, with what you want to avoid.. I would be rather able to connect myself with this topic. |

yes, as Frank stated, ICEMAN can invoke DFSort, SyncSort, CA-Sort...
Here in my shop ICEMAN invokes SyncSort. |

That means your site is installed with DFSORT. |

Hello,
First, Code shown make use of ICEMAN & not of ICETOOL. And what do you mean by "compiling"..? You check JCL for syntax errors (JEM/JSCAN/JCLCheck)..  What action did you perform when you get the above said errors. |

Thanks to all.
That issue has been resolved. I used Syncsort coz of some license issue problem with iceman. |

Or more correctly:
I used Syncsort because that's the sort product my site has a license for. |
