Hi... Make sure your que is correct
Acc to what I understood from ur que u want to give the override of the 2 dataset in the same jcl itself...if this is the case then make use of symbolic parameter.
In the jcl above before executing the steps use SET parameter to give the name for the override dataset.
For eg -
//SET1 SET HLQ1 = High1
// HLQ2 = High2
....
//DD1 DD DSN= &HLQ1.DS
//DD2 DD DSN =&HLQ2.DS
