How to point my proc to production dataset always though i keep jcllib order=development.dataset? ..

Answer / murali

You can't able to point the PROC to other regions
(TEST/PROD) dataset at any cost. If you run the JCL in Test
region, it will pick test datasets and viceversa for
production jcl.

SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=*
//IN DD
DSN=ABCD.PROD.INPFILE,DISP=SHR,
//
UNIT=VCAP,VOL=SER=xxxxxx
//OUT DD
DSN=EFGH.DEV.RAF17744,DISO=SHR


//SYSIN DD
*
REPRO INFILE(IN) OUTFILE(OUT) COPY

Answer / aparna

You could introduce symbolics.Point some to the production
dataset and keep the jcllib to the test dataset. Though it
only makes sense to do this for an Input dataset.
