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.

i think we need to generate a JCL through a cobol program
and then run the Created JCL.

There are a set of 10 files and a customer will be selecting random no of files(i.e they may be more than 2, may not be in the order).Sometimes he might just select one file or sometimes no files at all.How do you code a JCL for this? Is it possible to code just JCL alone for this problem?
