How can I override a dsn that is contained in a proc called
by another proc? I need to do the override in the calling
JCL.

Answer / muttiah
Let me frame the question in this way..
Say .. I have the job(Job1) which has a proc(proc1) and
this Proc1 is calling another Proc say Proc2..
So, you want to override the Dataset in a step of proc2 in
Proc1..This is possible..But overriding the dataset in
proc2 from the job1 is not possible.say proc A calls ProcB
and ProcB calls ProcC.. Then we can override details in
ProcC by ProbB only, but not with ProcA i guess you got the
point made.
//Job1 Job ....
//step1 exec proc1
//proc1 proc
//step1 exec proc2
//proc2 proc
//stepn exec pgm=iefbr14
//delstep dd dsn=Allinterivew.PS,disp=(mod,del,del),
// space=(trk,0)
Now change the code in proc1 as
//Proc1 proc
//step1 exec proc2
//stepn.delstep dd dsn=Deletefile.ps
In this way we can change the DS in proc2 from proc1. Hope
this makes much sense.

//PROC1 PROC
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=XYZ, DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
// PEND
//JJJ JCLLIB ORDER=PROCLIB PATH
//PROC2 PROC
//STEP2 EXEC PROC1
//JOBNAME JOB PARAMETERS
//JJJ JCLLIB ORDER=PROCLIB PATH
//PROC3 PROC
//STEP2.DD1 DSN=NEW NAME,DISP=SHR
THIS IS D WAY....

CATALOG PROC
//CATPROC PROC
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//DD1 DD DSN=FILEA,
// DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
// SPACE=(TRK,(100,50),RLSE),
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=800)
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//
INVOKING JCL
//Z000960P JOB CLASS=E,MSGCLASS=E,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
// JCLLIB ORDER=Z000960.SOURCE.JCL
//MYPROC EXEC CATPROC
//STEP1.DD1 DD DSN=FILEB,DISP=(NEW,CATLG)
AFTER EXECUTE THE JCL FILEB WILL BE GETTING OVERRIDE
