Hi All ,

We have a requirement to generate a list of dataset / hour / day .

The formant of the Dataset is like below :

AAAA.BBBB.CCCC.E12343.T0111210.ZZZZ where E12343 is the Julian Date of the System and T0111210 refers to the time stamp the dataset has been created . So we have several datasets created in every hour and throughout the day .

We have a requirement to generate a list which will be containing the number of dataset created every hour and we need to generate this report every day in hourly basis . I have been trying to do it using LISTCAT and SORT but getting difficulties while passing system time and hour as variable .

I am not very familiar to Rexx code so I am trying to do it through JCL .

Please Suggest .

the usual rant and reminder about POOR understanding of IT terminology ...

JCL DOES NOTHING... it simply provides the definition of the environment to execute some program amen

but naturally as usual around here You meant some flavor of sort
tell us what product You are using so that the topic can be moved
where it belongs
JCL for SYNCSORT
DFSORT for IBM DFSORT

but if You prefer a REXX solution search the forum for the IGGCSI
snippets from expat

and look at the IGGCSI samples in SYS1.SAMPLIB

and the topic will stay here

Please show us what you tried. Can you provide more specifics on the 'difficulties'?

Why use REXX, all of this information should be readily available from your performance and capacity team.

It's one of the things I reported on when I was doing P&C work.
