Answer / guest
Relative generation numbers are updated only at the end of
the job, not at the end of a step. To allocate a new
generation, we would be using (+ with a DISP of
(NEW,CATLG,DELETE). To refer to this in a subsequent step in
the same job, we would again use (+ but with a DISP of SHR
or OLD.

Assume am creating a generation for a base A.GDGB.V
DD DSN=A.GDG.V(+1),DISP=(,catlg,),space patameters,DCB
parameters
to use the above created version in next step in the same
JCL, i need to use as below:
