IBM Mainframe Forum

hi all,

Iam a beginner to mainframe,
I need to know the jcl to take print out of a dataset.
can yo help me..?

Arun

Go to IBM's web site, find the DFSMS Utilities manual, and read up on the IEBGENER utility program -- which can be used to copy a data set to print. There are other ways -- you really, really, really should contact your site support group FIRST to find out what the recommended method is at your site.

These users thanked the author Robert Sample for the post:

Arun: there are two ways to interpret your question. JCL provides a method to indicate a data set is to be printed by using the SYSOUT parameter in a DD statement. You use utility programs, such as IEBGENER as mentioned by Mr. Sample, to actually copy the data.

Sure i'l try it and get you back.

Thank you
