|
|
Hi,
I run below job that uses ICEGENER but it does not work as expected.
Code: |
//STEP0001 EXEC PGM=ICEGENER
//SYSUT1 DD *
DDDD
BBBB
CCCC
AAAA
DDDD
CCCC
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=* <-- WORKS AS SYSOUT
//DFSPARM DD *
SELECT FROM(SYSUT1) TO(SYSUT2) ON(1,2,CH) NODUPS
//*
|
Output:
Code: |
DDDD
BBBB
CCCC
AAAA
DDDD
CCCC

Is ICEGENER limited to work only for SORT and not ICETOOL?
Please help. _________________ MF

DFSORT includes the ICETOOL utility and the high-performance ICEGENER facility both.  _________________ Regards,

Let me rephrase my question.......
Using ICEGENER, is it possible to achieve the functions done with ICETOOL?
Thanks. _________________ MF

AFAIK, no ICEGENER can not achieve the functions done with ICETOOL.
DFSORT's ICEGENER facility is a replacement for IEBGENER for performance improvements. While, ICETOOL is a versatile data set processing and reporting utility which provides an easy-to-use batch front-end for DFSORT. It makes programmers life easy in many ways but there is no connection between ICETOOL and ICEGENER from this stand point of view.
DFSORT includes the ICETOOL utility and the high-performance ICEGENER facility both - but they have different "work-profiles." _________________ Regards,

MF,
You can use DFSORT control statements in DFSPARM with ICEGENER, providing that DFSORT copy can be used. If an ICEGENER job cannot use DFSORT Copy and must use IEBGENER instead, then the DFSPARM control statements will be ignored by IEBGENER.
You cannot use ICETOOL statements with ICEGENER. You can only use ICETOOL statements with ICETOOL. _________________ Frank Yaeger - DFSORT Development Team (IBM)
