Exercise 1

As member EX3 in library data set &SYSUID.JCL.CNTL, construct the Job Control necessary to create a file on disk, from 80-byte records. The details below offer guidance on the number and type of statements required, plus an indication of some of the parameters, which may be needed.

JOB Statement

• Job name to be based on the TSO userid in use
• Accounting information is not required.
• Use your name as the programmer's name.
• Memory requirement is for 4096K.
• Job to run in a class 'A' initiator.
• You are to be notified when the job ends.

EXEC statement

• The program to be executed is IEBGENER.

DD statements

There should be four DD statements as follows:

• SYSPRINT is a spooled print file
• SYSUT1 is the input file containing the 80-byte records.
• SYSUT2 is the new sequential file to be created on disk. This will require DSN, UNIT, DISPosition, SPACE (1 track should be enough), and DCB information.
• SYSIN should define a dummy file.

Data (to follow the SYSUT1 DD statement.)

This should comprise a number of records, with each record having the forename of one of the other delegates on the course.
