I am getting abend when the sysout space becomes full..

There is some idea in writing those into the JCL.

I have written like giving dataset name in the SYSOUT = dataset name instead of SYSOUT =*.

I am getting JCL ERROR.

So please advise on the above. Should i put any class details there..?

Hello and welcome to the forum,

If the following does not solve the problem, you need to post the jcl for the problem step. The basic replacement dd should be something like:

You can try putting a management class as A and then provide more space -

SORTWK01 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(100,100),RLSE)
SORTWK02 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(100,100),RLSE)
SORTWK03 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(100,100),RLSE)

Hello,

Please explain how a particular management class (i.e. A) would address too large a sysout? Also, keep in mind that management classes are site-specific, not industry standard. . .

How does adding/increasing the sort work space replate to sysout?
