Hello and good morning everybody,
in my JCL proc library I stored some members, let's call'em ALPHA001, BRAVO001, CHARLY01 - and some more.
I'd like do generate circa ten duplicates of them in this library - first of all without caring their content.
Thought I could use IEBCOPY for this that provides "Rename Member While Copying PDS To PDS".
So I tried
- both, with and withou continuation sign comma and / or dash.
Note: INLIB and OUTLIB are assigned to the same DSN, both with DISP=SHR.
Sorry, but I was not able to find really proper samples or a unambigous railroad diagram.
So I try and try and try - and error and error and error
» IEB137I CAN NOT SPECIFY DUPLICATE MEMBER NAMES FOR SELECT/EXCLUDE/RENAME
» IEB107I INVALID CONTINUATION
» IEB106I UNEQUAL PARENTHESIS
It seems one of my problems is the limitation of 72 chars each line.
But may I start coding the member names (old,new) in col 20 or so or must I start coding the following member name lines at a specific col further left?
And it seems the only way to be successful is to code a single copy statement for each duplicate.
Is there no other way to specify lots of selected source members and their renamed duplicates?

Continuation sign is for ex an 'X' in col 72, see manual.

From DFSMSdfp Utilities manual
To continue the copy control statement, stop at a comma. Put any nonblank character in column 72 and start in column 16 on the next record.
Thanks, that was helpful, solves most of my problems / questions.
But unfortunately did not solve the question IEB137I
But this works o.k. this way:
Code:
COPY INDD=INLIB,OUTDD=OUTLIB
SELECT MEMBER=((ALPHA001,ALPHA002,R), X
(BRAVO001,BRAVO002,R), X
(CHARLY01,CHARLY02,R))
COPY INDD=INLIB,OUTDD=OUTLIB
SELECT MEMBER=((ALPHA001,ALPHA003,R), X
(BRAVO001,BRAVO003,R), X
(CHARLY01,CHARLY03,R))
COPY INDD=INLIB,OUTDD=OUTLIB
SELECT MEMBER=((ALPHA001,ALPHA003,R), X
(BRAVO001,BRAVO004,R), X
(CHARLY01,CHARLY04,R))

yes ... it did
what was not clear in the error message you received

which is a different way of saying
CAN NOT SPECIFY MULTIPLE TIMES THE SAME MEMBER NAME IN A SELECT/EXCLUDE/RENAME CLAUSE
so you have no reason to complain
