Hi,
I have one file . Lets call this file as File A created in Step 1 having disposition as ( New , Pass , Delete ) . That means when the job is complete the job will automatically delete the File A
2) This file is being NDMed to some other server . Because of this NDM step, the File A is not getting deleted on its own and I have to explicitly put an IDCAMS step to delete in step 3
do u know why a file which is defined as PASS does not get deleted if it is NDMEd ? how can I avoid writing IDCAMS which explicity deletes the file ? I am looking for something implicit
If you truly require that this dataset be deleted after the transfer to the other server, then how have you defined the disposition in your CONNECT:Direct (NDM) process? Logically, it should be either:
A.
Code:
Defined as DISP=(SHR,DELETE) or DISP=(OLD,DELETE), something like this:
ZZCOPY01 PROCESS PNODE=pnode SNODE=snode
/*------------------------------------------------------------------*/
COPY010 COPY FROM (PNODE DSN=A -
DISP=(SHR,DELETE)) -
TO (SNODE DSN=B -
DISP=(RPL,CATLG)) -
COMPRESS
B. A step should exist in your process to check the return-code of your COPY step, and then, based on the appropriate return-code, delete the dataset (there is a facility in CONNECT:Direct to handle a dataset delete).
