Postby Swarna S » Thu Mar 27, 2008 8:51 pm

Hello guys,

Is there a wayout to alter a GDG limit for a dataset without affecting the existing ones.Can i change GDG limit of a dataset from 5 to 15, retaining the existing 5 versions as it is.Please let me know.

Thanks a lot!!!!

Use this JCL.

Select all
//S01     EXEC PGM=IDCAMS                 
//SYSPRINT  DD SYSOUT=*                   
    ALTER YOUR.GDG.BASE  LIMIT(new_limit)     


Post if you face any issues.
