Hi,
U can use only first 100 records from a file by using the
IDCAMS utility.
JCL to perform this operation is as below,
//JOBNAME JOB ,, Notify=User_id
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//INDATA DD DSNAME=DATA1
//OUTDATA DD DSNAME=DATA2
//SYSIN DD *
REPRO
INFILE(INDATA) OUTFILE(OUTDATA)
START(0) COUNT(100)
/*
COUNT variable in JCL with start counting a record from
start position 0 and count first 100 record.

Answer / arul anand.a
SORT FIELD=COPY,
SKIPREC=0 ( skip 0 records)
STOPAFT=100 (stop after 100 records).
so it will copy only first 100 records.
