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 / alokedeb@gmail.com

I agree with Haritha's answer, but the exception is say if
you want to dummy out the 3rd file. If you use "DD Dummy"
then the subsequent 4th and 5th file will not be processed.
So in the override you will have to manually remove the 3rd
file and push the 4th & 5th file above.
