Answer / ashl

Write a Clist that will take the input file read the first 1000 records and create
an output file. After 1000 records are created the next record should be
written to a new file. The Clist can allocate files during execution.

The timing of the file allocation will be handled logically by the program.
Keep a counter, once it reaches 1000, initialize the variable and and create a
new file.

The output file names will vary with each file.

Execute the Clist as a step in your job and once the step completes the
output should be different files with 1000 records.

Give your GDG base in the i/p DD name of SORt step. Use
SPLIT parameter in SORT to complete the task. When you use
GDG base all generation of that GDG will be considered.

Answer / shridhar

STEP001 : Selcopy/utility to count no of records in GDG.
Just mention GDG base in input to include all versions.

STEP002 : REXX step. define a stem of 1000. read input
batch of 1000 records or if not 1000 then for actual count.
Alloc a new file dynamically. Write these no of records.
Reduce actual count by no of records written.
Repeat procedure untill no of records <= 0.
