Used to copy one QSAM file to another. Source dataset should
be described using SYSUT1 ddname. Destination dataset should
be described using SYSUT2. IEBGENR can also do some
reformatting of data by supplying control cards via SYSIN.

Answer / pradeep

The IEBGENER can be used to call one JCL from another JCL,
example:

//TEST003 JOB 'SORT002',MSGCLASS=X,CLASS=T
//*
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY

Here the TEST003 Job when submitted, we inturn submit the
JCL member XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001)

used to copy a group of records of variable length from one
qsam file to another. the file may be ps or pds member..
source file must be specified in SYSUT1 and destination is
specified in SYSUT2.

Answer / shakila vinayagam

You can use IEBGENER to perform the following tasks:
1) Create a backup copy of a sequential data set, a member
of a partitioned data
set or PDSE or a UNIX system services (USS) file such as a
HFS file.
2)Produce a partitioned data set or PDSE, or a member of a
partitioned data set or
PDSE, from a sequential data set or a USS file.
3) Expand an existing partitioned data set or PDSE by
creating partitioned members
and merging them into the existing data set.
4) Produce an edited sequential or partitioned data set or
PDSE.
5) Manipulate data sets containing double-byte character
set data.
5) Print sequential data sets, members of partitioned data
sets or PDSEs or USS
files.
6) Reblock or change the logical record length of a data
set.
7)Copy user labels on sequential output data sets.

Answer / vijay

1.IEBGENER is used to copy contents from
* one PS to another PS/member of a PDS,
* one PDS member to a PS/member of a PDS.

2.It is also used to concatenate two datasets with same
BLK size.

3.The source can be a instream data/ a PS/member of a PDS.
The destination can be a PS/member of a PDS/spool data.
