This can be done using ICETOOL.
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//IN DD DSN=……input file1
//TOOLMSGDD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//TOOLIN DD*
COUNT FROM(IN) EMPTY
/*
In the above JCL, Input file1 is empty. If we run this JCL
it will retrun NON-ZERO retrun code.
adv: It will be very helpful when we want to run some steps
after checking a particular file is empty or not.
