How To get the last record in VSAM file in cluster?
and How can u get the ksds file records into ur cobol
program ? Pls tell me about these two questions.
Answer / shivani
Move highvalues to the key of the VSAM file and the issue Readnext record command. Then give Readprev command. This will read the last record. In VSAM, there is one command HURBA, Using that we can read the last record, If you want to know more about go to IBM RED BOOKS. You will get the solution.
by using the HURBA we can get the max records by using the CKD count key data we will get the last record

Suppose a proc step has a DD statement like //ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE1,DISP=SHR DSN=TEST.FILE2,DISP=SHR and the above DD name is overridden from the JCL as given below //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 - Will the DD statement now have just TEST.FILE3 or it will be TEST.FILE3 and TEST.FILE2? Suppose if it is overridden twice like //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE4 Will this give a JCL error? If not, what will be final output?
Hi, all suppose i have 5 steps (S1,S2,S3,S4,S5) what will happen if cond is true or false (which of the other steps get executed)? 1) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le) 2) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le,step2) 3) In the jobcord RESTART=step3,cond=(0,le) 4) can i code COND=TRUE in jobcard, if yes what will happen?
can a job be submitted through jcl only? is there another way to submit a job?
Explain the jcl exec statement?
IF WE GIVE COND on step3 then, What does the following mean ? And Just adding to that, All the below COND are VALID as per the specifications. (i) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2) ---(AND/OR ?) (ii) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2, ONLY), (iii) COND = (8,LT,step1,ONLY) will it execute only if this condition is true or only if step1 ABENDS ? (iv) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2,EVEN), (v) COND = (8,LT,step1,EVEN) ?
What are the difference between jcl and jes?
How would you understand error(execution phase)?
What do you understand by the terms: joblib and steplib?
restart logic ?
what is DSN in JCL and what are the parameters to declare the DSN?
Matching Logic in Jcl not in cobol.Could any one please answer this question
