A simple way to take the matching records if there are no duplicates in both the files.
1. Merge both the files and take the duplicates in separate file using XSUM.
//S010 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SORTIN DD DSN=DSN1
// DD DSN=DSN2
//SORTOUT DD DSN=DSNOUT
//XSUM DD DSN=DSN.MATCH
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,1,CH,A)
SUM FIELDS=NONE,XSUM
The output DSN.MATCH will have the matched records.
