One thing I would like to ask,
when we gave any of the GDG base name LISTCAT LVL('XYZ)
and if I do have another gdg base name 'XYZ.BKP' present/catlg then above list cat command is reading both and because of that job is ending with maxx=00.
ah, I see - you pose this question, that means -- your previous question came in without submitting the Job actually, yeah? icon_smile.gif

IDCAMS is not "intutive". (I'll refer IDCAMS with "He", had it been "she", it could have been intutive... icon_biggrin.gif). Said that, no what you assume/say is not correct. If programmer says to check about GDG Base "XYZ" using LISTCAT LVL('XYZ') -- IDCAMS look only for 'XYZ' -- nothing more nothing less!

You're welcome.

On the other hand, Peter has put forward a very valid point, hopefully you understand what he meant.
