Hi,
I'am getting a VSAM file open error 90, I came to know that it can be resolved by IDCAMS VERIFY , can anyone give me the the JCL or the procedure to do this
Any help would be really appreciated

gans79,
Where did you get that from ? In Multi threading environment if one process did not close the vsam file and another pgm tried to open it then you would get a file status of 90. In this case Verify would solve it. However there are many other ways when you would get a filestatus of 90. And verify wouldn't solve it.
1. Is the vsam cluster you are trying to open an Variable block file?
2. Do you have BLOCK CONTAINS 0 in FD section for this file? Is it an input file or an output file?
Btw verify Operand is explained in detail in IDCAMS manual along with examples here
