Kindly refer to the JCL code for IDCAMS REPRO. When i provide search condition as a key beyond the last record in file, IDCAMS prints the following message in SYSPRINT

REPRO IFILE(DD1IN) OFILE(DD1OUT) FROMKEY('ZZZZ') TOKEY('ZZZZ')
IDC0005I NUMBER OF RECORDS PROCESSED WAS 0
IDC3006I FUNCTION TERMINATED DUE TO BEGINNING POSITIONING ERROR



Code:

//DCBKP1   EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,COND=(4,LT)

If i code similar to this in REXX, as provided below i get a different error message as specified here:

In the former case, from the message
IDC3006I FUNCTION TERMINATED DUE TO BEGINNING POSITIONING ERROR
i could find that the pointer is going beyond end of file. But the following message from REXX, looks like SYTNAX Error

12 :Clause too long

How to get IDC3006I from REXX also

I assume that you have read the meaning for the IDC3006I message and checked that all is well regarding the reord keys. i.e. the key does exist.

Should you not leave a space before the REPRO keyword in your generated control statement.

Am testing for the condition that the key does not exist and also that it is beyond the last key in the file.
If i provide a key that does not exist and is a key in between 2 keys which are already present in the file then the SYSPRINT JCL message & the 1 from REXX OUTTRAP is the same

Checking that the key does not exist seems fair enough, but checking for a key that doesn't exist beyond the last key is just nonsense.

If you think about it, how can it exist beyond the last key in the dataset, because if it did it would itself be the last key in the dataset.

I just specified the test scenario and wanted to understand how to trap this specific message in REXX so that in the REXX program i would specifically check for this message (IDC3006I FUNCTION TERMINATED DUE TO BEGINNING POSITIONING ERROR)
& understand that the key was not present in the file and that the REPRO failure is not due to anything else

deepa12,

It is quite amazing that you don't learn from your earlier mistakes. A few days back you had this topic

https://www.mvsforums.com/helpboards/viewtopic.php?t=12910

and the error is "Clause too long" and here we are again with the same error.

The resolution in the earlier topic was to allocate the message DD SYSTSPRT. Since it is IDCAMS REPRO you need to allocate SYSPRINT.

If you are coding a rexx to replicate the JCL version then make sure that you allocate ALL the ddnames needed.

I still don't get this nonsense of using REXX for every request which results in a huge waste of resources.

Kolusu.

Sometimes, the reason for writing stuff in Rexx rather than as JCL is because you want to mollycoddle (there must be a better word) the end users.

I have developed (deliberately) a panel based application in ISPF using rexx for that reason. The end users are management. To expect them to understand what SDSF is, to ensure they don't reset their prefix there by mistake etc, is totally unrealistic.

Give them a panel and some PF keys that will check whether the job has run to completion etc. They will log onto TSO, come straight into the application and ONLY use the options available there.

THAT is why you sometimes have to "protect" users from what they would consider the vagaries of TSO.

misi01,

I agree that you need to provide an GUI interface for the end users. That is the *ONLY* thing you would provide for them. The actual process needs to be handled under the covers with an optimal solution. You don't write a REXX exec to read/update millions of records. You generate the Batch JCL and submit via INTRDR and then check for the return code and send the message/email back to the end user after successful/failure completion. For all the end user doesn't care how you got the desired results.

I already allocated SYSPRINT, SYSTSPRT and tried. They were empty.
And i have presented the same once again

The SYSPRINT, SYSTSPRT datasets have been allocated as FB 133 . They are empty. It shows the error message on screen. But it remains the same

Code:
 INFILE = 'XE57.X7.SMFILE'

Why waste space and time by showing the same code again? How about cutting and pasting the screen messages.

You can save yourself a lot of typing if you omit the ADDRESS TSO as TSO is the default.

SYSPRINT & SYSTPRNT are not LRECL 133 or FB. You could try 121 & FBA.

Did you try this ??? This is how I code my REPRO in REXX
Code:

"REPRO IFILE(IN) OFILE(TE) FROMKEY('"FKEY"') TOKEY('"FKEY"')"

Should become
Code:

" REPRO IFILE(IN) OFILE(TE) FROMKEY('"FKEY"') TOKEY('"FKEY"')"
