For your first EXECIO execution, try adding FINIS as an option as in:
'EXECIO 1 DISKR WORK FILE A (FINIS VAR WINT' -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Howard Rifkind Sent: March 5, 2009 16:46 To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: EXECIO PROBLEM In an exec I'm running I issue the EXECIO command as shown below...in exactly that format. It works just fine and returns the information I'm looking for in the work file. It's before the following. SELECT; When task_to_do="BACKUP" then call backup_mdisk_files; When task_to_do="SDF" then call backup_sdf_files; When task_to_do="OPERLOG" then EXEC MAKLOG; When task_to_do="DAILYACT" then EXEC DSKACNT; When task_to_do="EREPRECS" then EXEC EREPX3; When task_to_do="PERFSVM" then EXEC PERFSV; The last 'when' executes the PERFSV exec and in that exec I issue the EXECIO command again as indicated below and get an RC(2). The work file never gets deleted anywhere between the two exec and is on the 'A' disk. Any thought about why an error is coming up would be appreciated. Thanks. 11 *-* 'EXECIO 1 DISKR WORK FILE A (VAR WINT' >>> "EXECIO 1 DISKR WORK FILE A (VAR WINT" +++ RC(2) +++ 12 *-* PARSE VAR WINT TASK_TO_DO ADSTUFF . >>> "WINT" >>> "" >.> "" _____________ LEGAL NOTICE Unless expressly stated otherwise, this message is confidential and may be privileged.
