Answer Posted / sivakumar sekharannair
In the question it says that in step 4 and 5 a new
generation is created. so
Step 4 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT1(+1) This step can be
referred as in Step6.
so step 6 will refer this file as XX17.PRASAD.OUT1(+1)
generation only. because (+1) will become current version
(0) only after the execution of the entire job.
Similarly
Step 5 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(+1)
so step 7 will refer this file as XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(+1).
If the job abends in step 6. the files created in step 4
and 5 will become current version (0).
so now the 7th step will refer the output of step 5 as (0)
i.e.XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(0).
Note:
I assume the files created by step4 and step5 are different.

1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
