Allocate a transient dataset (non-GDG) in your job-step that creates the data, then either submit a separate job or I believe you may be able to simply execute a subsequent step using GENER du jour to copy the transient dataset to a (+1) generation in the started task JCL/PROC.

We have a started task which creates a GDG file. This started task stays ups unless it abends or an IPL happens. This GDG is SMS controlled. There are several files which will not migrate because the GDG index is enqueued. Is there a way to get around this so the files will be migrated. Any help would be appreciated.
