Suppose a proc step has a DD statement like //ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE1,DISP=SHR DSN=TEST.FILE2,DISP=SHR and the above DD name is overridden from the JCL as given below //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 - Will the DD statement now have just TEST.FILE3 or it will be TEST.FILE3 and TEST.FILE2? Suppose if it is overridden twice like //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE4 Will this give a JCL error? If not, what will be final output?
