XSUM is just to store the bypassed data during a SORT JCL.
For example see the below given JCL,
//STEPSORT EXEC PGM=SORT
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=XXX.PV.SUMIN.SAMF
//SORTOF01 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=XXX.PV.SUMOUT.SAMF
//SORTXSUM DD DSN=XXX.PV.DUPLIC.SAMF,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),UNIT=SYSDA,
// SPACE=(TRK,(50,50),RLSE),
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=60,BLKSIZE=0)
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,1,CH,A)
OUTFIL FILES=01,INCLUDE=(6,6,CH,EQ,C' ')
SUM FIELDS=NONE,XSUM

Where can program checkpoints be stored for use in a restart?
I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
