Hi..

I have a production JCL, Which is a daily job and its going 2 create a new ps file. For creating a new ps file how can i code disp parameter? Without changing the JCL or deleting the PS file (already created) how can i achieve the same?

If i use disp = mod...Then first day it will create new PS, during its second run it will append the records.
My requirement i- create a new PS file (daily) without changing the JCL.

Thanks
Kalaignar

kalaignar_rs,

1. Please follow the forum rules.
2. Do not code a topic title with forum name such as JCL
3. Please Post it in the right forum. you posted a JCL related question in DB2 forum.

To answer your question code an IEFBR14 step as the first step to delete the dataset and in the next step create the dataset as usual with disp=(new,catlg,delete)

Hope this helps...

Cheers

Kolusu

Code DISP=OLD and it will rewrite the file each day.
