1) Read the manual and use exactly what is suggested for continuation.

2) Use IDCAMS instead

As expat says, IEHPROGM has very strict (and very old fashioned) rules about continuation, which you do not appear to be following.

If the TCHN07 volume is SMS managed, stay away from IEHPROGM.

If the dataset is cataloged, use IDCAMS ALTER xxx NEWNAME(yyy), or use the TSO RENAME command using the TSO in batch JCL.

Hi,

"When renaming an SMS-managed data set, IEHPROGM will uncatalog the data set and then catalog the data set under its new name in the appropriate catalog."

Can you check if "CCHN635.JCL.PROG1" if it exist already ?
