Adding to satish answer.
Option copy is similar to sort fields= copy or merge
fields=copy.
It is used to simply copy the records from input to output
file.
Outfil is used when we want to do process records in the
input file.
Here split option is used in Outfil to seperate the input
file into 2, that means it will write the alternate records
into the files specified in fnames.
Other syntax of Outfill would be
//step1 exec pgm=sort
//sortin dd dsn=Inputfile
//sortof01 dd dsn=file1
//sortof02 dd dsn=file2
//sysin dd *
option copy
outfil files=(01,02),split
/*
Here we are giving 01,02 which indicates the DDnames that
are prefixed with sortof.
Hope this makes sense in understanding satish answer

Answer / bala
we can add seqnum to each record in the file using SORT
command and copy then use INCLUDE & EXCLUDE COND of SORT
for this.
