I have below JCL:
Code:

//JSTEP010 EXEC PGM=SORT,REGION=0M                       
//SORTIN   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=&INFILE                       
//SYPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=*                                   
//SYSOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*                                   
//OUTPUT01 DD  DSN=&OFILE,                               
//             DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                   
//             LIKE=&INFILE                               

But the output01 has still some space unreleased.Now I want to give RLSE w/o giving primary and secondary space.
I tried SPACE=(,,,RLSE) but this does not work.

Shiv,

Try this

Code:

//LASTSTEP EXEC PGM=IEBGENER                           
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*                                 
//SYSUT1   DD  DUMMY,DCB=&INFILE
//SYSUT2   DD  DSN=FILE WHOSE SPACE NEEDS TO BE RELEASED,   
//             DISP=(MOD,KEEP,KEEP),                   
//             SPACE=(TRK,(1,0),RLSE)                   
//SYSIN    DD  DUMMY         


Check this link which discusses to calculate the optimum space allocation based on the LRECL & RECFM

Kolusu,

My question was not framed correctly.I want to know if the ONLY RLSE parameter can be OVERRIDEN w/o specifying primary and secondary space subparameters.
