Answer Posted / sujin james
iebcompr is a utility which is used to compare either PS and
PDS. It will return 0 when to PS/PDS is equal in their
spaace,volume,DCB characteristics. In other cases the output
will be a non zero digit.
eg: //sysut1 dd dsn=file1, disp=shr
//sysut2 dd dsn=file2, disp=shr
//sysin dd *
compare typorg=PS/PO
/*
//
file1 and file2 are the two PS/PDS to compare. typeorg=PS in
case of PS, typorg=PO in case of PDS
