you have one jcl .in sort step 5 files are there.if out of 5
files if one file is uncataloged or not there then how will
you correct your jcl so that problem does not come. you
should not create this file externally.how will u overcome
it.

Answer Posted / venkat

you can override the uncataloged file with a dummy file or we can use two job steps in the jcl statement..one to create the 5th file using IEFBR14 utility and IEBGENER to copy records from a file to 5th file..........then sorting can be done.
