Thanks. |

Hilltop,
Run the following step and check the messages in TOOLMSG. If your job abends with S806 (load module not found) then you don't have DFSORT installed in your shop.
If job completes succesfully and the messages in toolmsg start with ICExxx then you have DFSORT in your shop.
If job completes succesfully and the messages in toolmsg start with SYTxxx then you have syncsort in your shop.
| Code: |
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD *
test record
//OUT DD SYSOUT=*
//TOOLIN DD *
COPY FROM(IN) TO(OUT)
/*
|
Hope this helps...
Cheers
kolusu

Hi kolusu,
As always you the man.
Ran the step and it was successful and found Syncsort. Is there any difference between syncsort and DFSort. Please let me know.
Regards. |

If you or anyone else on this board would like some documents prepared by the DFSORT Team that describe what we see as the advantages of DFSORT over Syncsort, as well as considersations for migrating from Syncsort to DFSORT, send me an e-mail offline (yaeger@us.ibm.com). Please put "DFSORT" somewere in your Subject line to catch my attention.
