DD parameters:-



a)      * :-  positional parameter at DD level used only with SYSIN. To pass data to the cobol programs this is known as instream data any number of records can be passed to the peg.
b)      DSN :-  keyword parameter at DD level.
Ex:-
JCL:-
//job001
//step001          Exec PGM=cob001
// X                  DD      DSN= userid.source.psname1, unit =disk/tape
// AB               DD      DSN=userid.source.psname2, unit =disk/tape

cobol:-
select cust-file assign to X
select cust-file assign to AB



       c) DISP:- used to  identify the mode of the file

DISP :- ( Status, normal, abnormal)

Status:             NEW:- creating the dataset first time
                        OLD:- already created. Accessing the dataset all resources are allocated exclusively. No other user can access until ti is released by the current user. If dataset is not existing this creates.
                        SHR:- the dataset can be accessed by multiple users at a time 
                        MOD:- appending the records to the existing records
Adv:- if dataset is not existing, then MOD is assumed as NEW and writes records to the dataset.

Normal:- all the parameters of normal are active when the job executes successfully
                        Delete:- dataset is deleted when job executes successfully
                        Keep:- it keeps dataset in system. But it doesn’t create any reference in catlg
                        Catlg:- when job terminates successfully it is going to create an index by a referencing name specified in volume label. This keeps dataset
Eg: catlg: volume 4
                        Uncatlg:- it resides in system, but it deletes volume label name form catlg like KEEP.
                        Pass:- to pass dataset to subsequent steps
Abnormal:-     
Delete:- deletes
                        Keep:- keeps in system
                        Catlg:- creates index in catlg
                        Uncatlg:- delete index from catlg

Default : DISP = (new, del, del)

Reusable components in JCL: instream procedure
//job001           job(xyz), ‘abc’ class= L MSGclass=D, MSGLEVEL=(1,1), notify=&sysid
//proc001         PROC à procedure reusable component.
//step001          Exec PGM=cob001
//I1                   DD      DSN=use.input, disp=SHR
//I2                   DD      “          “          “          “= OLD
//                      PEND
//step002         
//
//step100          Exec    PROC001


how to change parameters in procedure(instream)

//job001           job(xyz), ‘abc’ class= L MSGclass=D, MSGLEVEL=(1,1), notify=&sysid
//proc001         PROC à procedure reusable component.
//step001          Exec PGM=cob001
//I1                   DD      DSN=use.input, disp=SHR
//I2                   DD      “          “          “          “= OLD
//                      PEND
//step002         
//
//step100          Exec    PROC001
//step001          DD      DSN=op2        disp=NEW


c)Space:-  this is a keyword parameter in DD operand  can be coded any where after DD operand. This is used to request the storage space for the dataset as per the requirement. The storage space is divided in to primary and secondary for effective storage space utilization.  RLSE parameter is used to release the unused storage space upon the successful /  unsuccessful termination of the job

1) CYLINDERS,BLOCKS, TRACKS AND RECORDS:-different types of storage
2) PRIMARY:- this is the primary which is allocated to the data set while creating
3) SECONDARY: this is additional memory allocated inaddition to the primary memory
4) RLSE:- releases the unused space when peg terminates successfully/unsuccessfully.

SPACE=(TRK,(10,10), RLSE)

a)      Data Control Block:- this contains the following keyword parameters used to specify file attributes.
LRECL:- logical record length =100 fixed length/ variable length.
BLKSIZE:- blocksize (LRECL * 10)
RECFM :- f & fb= fixed length
                     V & vb= variable length
f/fbà LRECL=100.
v/vbàLRECL=maxlength + 4

DSORG : ps/po(pds) (dataset organization)
Po: partition organization
Pds: partitioned dataset
Ps: physical sequent ional file

FBA- fixed block attribute
VBA- variable block attribute

Printer :- 1 byte attribute character (system defined)
0 – line
1 – page
the record length for a printer it should 1+132=133
 to print the data, record length must be 132 +| 1. printer control character
DCB= ( LRECL=133, blksize= 133 * 10,RECFM=fba, DSORG=ps)


Ps/pds created
// job001
//
//step001    Exec                pgm=cob001
//C1                       DD                  DSN=user.souce.data, disp=old
//SYSIN                DD                  *
