Well, make up a datasetname that you can show us which fails in the same way. Copy/paste the full message, with the message-code.

If you can't do that, then there's no point in asking here.

Have you looked up in the JCL manual to check what constitutes a valid dataset name?

I came to know that the errors were due to non compliance with our internal dataset naming standards. Any way , thanks for the replies.
