I'm not sure what a .FILE is.
For a vanilla VSAM file, use IDCAMS to do a PRINT DUMP on the DSN.
Write a prog to pull in the parm via a linkage section.
Define an input record to segregate that field.
Step through the file comparing the field to the linkage parm.
Define the account number as an 01 level, with sublevels having the first 11 bytes and the last byte.
Def another 01 level with the same 11 bytes, a X1 VALUE '0', and the last byte.
Move the first...
Simple, you didn't specify which DB2 system you wanted to go to.
DB2 V9.1 - Codes - SQLCODE -927
The solution depends on how the stored procedure is being called. Provide that info and I can...
In the first example, you are forced to hardcode both vars.
In the second, you can use the one var to represent both vars.
In such a small example, there's little benefit. But when you work...
Whoa!! That is a massively vague question, requiring a lot of assumptions.
I assume you're getting the cat error while running JCL. I assume you're getting the most common cat error under DFSMS;...
The answer is 'yes.'
How you do it depends on the language you're asking about. You didn't specify that.
The common languages are assembler, clist, rexx, c, shell scripting or COBOL. I'm...
If I understand your question, you want to merge unrelated workloads on physically disparate CEC's.
Personally, I'd call this a migration.
Assuming both CEC's are on the same OS & CICS release,...
Simple. Use the "DISPLAY" verb.
"Time stamp mismatch" in what? SMF, IDMS, DB2?
You would get more responses if you insert each question into a different thread.
You can update a PDS control block by opening the PDS as BSAM with a keylen of 8.
Walk through the member blocks...
Wow, to answer your question, it would probably take a thesis. I was in a program that took about a year to teach what you want to know.
A batch job begins after you submit it to the internal...
Sure! It's as easy as pie.
Right Adjust and Zero Fill with Erase to End of Field Feature
Absolutely. It's data just like anything else. You will have 3 sort fields; Y,M,D.
Are you asking because you need to reformat the date while sorting?
Whether you use parm or DD data is a factor of data size and reuse.
Small variables not accessed anywhere else can be put in a parm.
If you have to process a lot of data or the info has to be...
Instream procs are a proc defined in the jcl with PROC/PEND statements. These are used when you want to repeat a single step many times with minor variations.
Catalog/include procs are more...
I'm not sure where you're getting your info, but a 11meg mainframe file is NOT large.
The last time I checked, the max was 4gb and that was quite some time ago.
If you need to download it to a...
There are two ways. First, merge all the jcl into a single member.
Second, you can use INCLUDE members from a JCLLIB. This is along the same lines as a proc, but since you controld the JCLLIB, you...
I'm not aware of any IBM util that will do this. You could code up an assembler program or if you have it, SAS or any of the other 3rd party products.
That's a pretty vague question. There's always CICS which was made to do exactly that.
If you're in TSO, you can quickly and easily code a REXX or CLIST that calls your program and passes info...
SPF/PC or SourceEdit are pretty good analogs of TSO.
There's also the C/S version of TSO where you edit on your PC and it's stored on the mainframe.
Are you working with a VB dataset and storing hivals in the RDW? This could be unwise.
What sort of dataset are you working with? What's the format of the hival field? Bin or dec?
No there is none. This is because their basic operations are so different.
CICS is meant to process data quickly and reliably.
DB2 is meant to retreive/store data quickly and reliably.
I'm sorry to answer this, but "It depends."
You could use PD data, but that requires 5 bytes. I would recommend storing it in binary format
