Issue/Introduction

The job is abending with SB37-04 on the DD statement for EZTR001, which is a dynamically allocated temporary dataset.

May this DD statement be hardcoded in the JCL?

Environment

Resolution

Here is an example of how to code in the JCL the DD statement for the EZTR001 file:

 //EZTR001  DD  DSN=high.level.qualifier.TEST.EZTR001,
 //             DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),
 //             UNIT=SYSDA,
 //             SPACE=(CYL,(100,100),RLSE),STORCLAS=WORK,
 //             DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=1800,BLKSIZE=0)

 with the following coded inside the program:

PARM LIST (PARM FILE) WORKFILE (YES)
FILE EZTR001  FB (80 27920)
