Before using GDG , We need to create GDG index and model.
IDCAMS (the 'AMS' stands for Access Method Services),
utility is used to create GDG index.
Once the index has been created, a model data set must
be created. This model data set contains specifications
for the DCB subparameters for all data sets that will
belong to that GDG. Programmer can override this default
values if he want.

I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
