Answer Posted / pradeep
the error "ICE172A" says that the SORT Tool used by your
shop is ICETOOL and so the SYNCSORT tool options cannot be
used in this case. If you would like to confirm what is the
sort tool that your shop is using, try to do a Quick ref
(eg: QW SORT) at the command line and find which is the
tool that is installed. Also, you can achive similar
results by using the NODUPS options with ICETOOL. There is
a difference b/w NODUPS and SUM FIELDS=NONE. NODUPS will
eliminate all the related duplicate records along with its
first occurrence, but, in SYNCSORT, the first occurence of
the duplicate record will not be removed from the main
input file.
Hope this answers!!
