 |
|
Hi all,
Can we give a PDS name without specifying the members as input in SORTIN statement?
Following is illustration of my requirement:
Input PDS : AAA.PDS1
members:
1. mem1
2. mem2
.....
15. mem15
Can we concatenate the contents of all the members in a single flat file using sort?
I tried the below JCL:
| Code: |
//TEST01 EXEC PGM=SORT
//*
//SORTIN DD DSN=AAA.PDS1,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
/*
|
But it failed and issued the following error message:
| Code: |
WER108I SORTIN : RECFM=FB ; LRECL= 80; BLKSIZE= 27920
WER180A SORTIN MEMBER NOT SPECIFIED
WER211B SYNCSMF CALLED BY SYNCSORT; RC=0000
WER449I SYNCSORT GLOBAL DSM SUBSYSTEM ACTIVE
|
Is there any way out that I can concatenate the contents of all the members in the PDS without specifying the members in the JCL?
Thanks much.

Hi all,
Disregard my previous topic.
I changed my search criteria to "concatenate pds" and it fetched me the following link with a fileaid solution:
http://www.mvsforums.com/helpboards/viewtopic.php?t=2289&highlight=concatenate+pds
Just curious.. Any possiblity to do the same thing in SORT?

dfsort does not read a pds/pdse directory - yet..
you can also use iebptpch. in the utillities forum, frank created a sticky with links to utility manuals. check out the one with ieb... ieh.... as a title.

The OP is using Syncsort, so I didn't respond. But since you brought DFSORT into it ...
Using SORTIN for the entire pds will not work. However, specifying each pds(member) in a concatenated SORTIN will work:
| Code: |
//SORTIN DD DSN=AAA.PDS1(MEM1),DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=AAA.PDS1(MEM2),DISP=SHR
...
