Using SORT utility we can split the file. Sort card will be
as:
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFILE FNAMES=(SORTOUT1,SORTOUT2,SORTOUT3),SPLIT
/*
If there are 10 records in input and these have to be split
across three files SORTOUT1, SORTOUT2 and SORTOUT3
respectively. After running the Job using this sort card,
record1 would be stored in SORTOUT1, record2 in SORTOUT2,
record3 in SORTOUT3, record4 in SORTOUT1 and so on.

USE ICETOOL to split the records from a single file into two
output files. Do a search in google, you will get lot of
ICETOOL JCL for this requirement.

Answer / shubhanshu sharma
//SORT01 DD DSN = PDS,
DISP = (NEW,CATALOG,DELETE),
DCB = (RECFM = F, LRECL = 80, BLKSIZE = 800),
UNIT = SYSDA,
VOL = WRKA97
SPACE = (CYL,(1,4),RLSE)
//SORTIN DD*
SORTFIELD = COPY,
SKIPREC = 100,
STOPREC = 80.
/*
SKIPREC means how many records we need to skip
STOPAFT means how many records we need to put in the
file.

Answer / kalpana
Using the sort card we can split the file.
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY,SKIPREC=56910,STOPAFT=25
/*
SKIPREC means how many records we need to skip and STOPAFT
means how many records we need to put in the
file.
