Every record doesn't contain all data

Postby LasseH » Mon Feb 18, 2013 8:35 pm

I admit, I'm having problem to find the right "search" argument

Problem:
Trying to create some Librarian statements from a Librarian Index listing

Input:

Select all
AAGG002B   0 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB       
                 -1 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB       
AAGP006    0 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA   
                -1 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA   
AAGP006O   0 12/11/22 07:44 PBBK HOBA/PAKA   
AAGP006S   0 12/07/12 15:13 BLHV HOBA/PAKA


Colums are: Membername(2,8) arclevel(10,4) date(15,8) time(24,5) .....

Requested output:

Select all
-EXTRACT AAGG002B,ARC=-1
-EXTRACT AAGG002B,ARC=-0
-EXTRACT AAGP006,ARC=-1
-EXTRACT AAGP006,ARC=-0


Is this possible with DFSort?

The input didn't came out right:

Select all
AAGG002B  0 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB
         -1 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB   <- membername blank
AAGP006   0 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA
         -1 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA <- membername blank
AAGP006O  0 12/11/22 07:44 PBBK HOBA/PAKA
AAGP006S  0 12/07/12 15:13 BLHV HOBA/PAKA


Code'd and aligned

Yes, it will be possible.

With WHEN=GROUP you will be able to PUSH the member name to the blank areas.

Select all
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
RECORD
/*
//SORTOUT DD DUMMY
//SYSIN   DD   *
  OPTION COPY
/*


Can you post the SYSOUT from the above step, please, so we can see what level of the product you have?

LasseH,

Assuming you want to build 80 byte control cards, here is a DFSORT JCL which will give you the desired results

Select all
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT                                           
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                             
//SORTIN   DD *                                                   
AAGG002B  0 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB                               
         -1 13/01/22 10:10 SPJH PSTB                               
AAGP006   0 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA                         
         -1 13/01/28 15:02 XVPC HOBA/PAKA                         
AAGP006O  0 12/11/22 07:44 PBBK HOBA/PAKA                         
AAGP006S  0 12/07/12 15:13 BLHV HOBA/PAKA                         
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                                             
//SYSIN    DD *                                                   
  OPTION COPY                                                     
  INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=GROUP,BEGIN=(1,8,CH,NE,C' '),
             PUSH=(1:1,8)),   
  IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,BUILD=(1,8,SQZ=(SHIFT=LEFT,
          LEAD=C'-EXTRACT ',
      TRAIL=C',ARC=-',LENGTH=25),11,1,80:X)),
  IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,OVERLAY=(10:10,70,SQZ=(SHIFT=LEFT)))           
//*


The output of this job is

Select all
-EXTRACT AAGG002B,ARC=-0 
-EXTRACT AAGG002B,ARC=-1 
-EXTRACT AAGP006,ARC=-0   
-EXTRACT AAGP006,ARC=-1   
-EXTRACT AAGP006O,ARC=-0 
-EXTRACT AAGP006S,ARC=-0

Thanks Kolusu, work just fine.
Changed a little, cause membername starts in column 2, (8 long) and arclevel starts in column 9, (4 long)

Is it possible to do a decending sort on arclevel within membername?
So that the result will end up like

-EXTRACT DCOLLECT,ARC=-255
-EXTRACT DCOLLECT,ARC=-254
.
.
-EXTRACT DCOLLECT,ARC=0

Running Z/OS DFSORT V1R12

Try it out. You have a "free format" number (ie equivalent significant digits are not always in the same place). See if you can find something to sort on which can reflect that.

Hmm, if the member name starts in position 2 and it is 8 bytes long , how come the arc level starts at position 9? Aren't you having overlapping fields?

//Lasse


Do you want to Sort on member name and then the arc level or just arc level irrespective of the member? Either way leave the WHEN=GROUP on the INREC itself, so that you have member name on all the records. Now you can SORT on the data. For arc level sort look up UFF/SFF formats

Move the WHEN=INIT statements to OUTREC which would do build the control cards you need after sorting.
