Re: GDG QUESTION

Hi Howard, The JCL you ran defined the GDG and the 3.4 display is what I would expect to see for the catalogued GSG base. You can create 5 generations and the 6th will cause the oldest to roll off the catalogue and be scratched. The GDG base is not a dataset, it is a catalogue entry only, a f

I need to move some existing GDG datasets from tape to disk. Normally, I would create a new version of each generation (V00 to V01, etc.), however these are created by a product which records the dataset name when they are created, and uses the actual name (whatever.G0001V00) when referencing t

Re: gdg question

Thanks for sharing the info on this Bruce: Remember that it is true that a SYSDSN ENQ is held until the end of last step that references the dataset. this is also true for GDG bases. My test showed that this is true, both ENQs were released at the end of the first step. But if you have a jo

IFF the file had been created on DASD you probably would not have seen a problem. BUT because the file was created on a removeable media (TAPE/CART), the CATALOG process does not complete until JOB END (which I would think should be step end, but hey, what do I know?). This happens whether or no

I'm no guru but I would say that the JOBB has and ENQUE on the base because you said DISP=OLD with a releative #. If you specified the actual generation by dataset name .GVnn I believe you would be allset. Thanks, Dave Hanson 464-8889 ---

Well, what is the impact if you run twice in the same day? JCL Errors, erroneous data? How do you know if the data was not collected because it was not there or it just failed to run? Personally, I would rather have function that explicitly create the GDG for the day, then have a preprocessor

Re: GDG question

when you reference a GDG dataset by the root name only, I believe it reads the individual datasets LIFO rather than FIFO (or at least from highest # to lowest # - if may not actually look at when created) - if the order of input read is improtatn to you, than this might not be a satisfactory me
