Hi everyone,
Can i have Compile jcl statement , run jcl statement and load library as members under same PDS?


Kind regards
gyaa

One word: NO.

What format are load libraries stored in? Is that format compatible with JCL?

@steve
Can you kindly elloborate me in detail, bec. when i use all compile JCL, Run JCL and Load pgm as a members under same PDS it states "BROWSE SUBSTITUTED" & there are no more contents other than the job statements in compile and Run JCL and in COBOL program lly identification divison.


Kind regards
gyaa

Hello Robert,
If you are asking about contents of Load library my answer is no its not compatible with JCL statments. But my que. is can we store all Members in one PDS or not?

Hello,

Why ask again - you were already told no. If you want to "manage" these datasets, suggest you do what many systems do and have a particular high-level qualifier for these datasets (application, sub-system, business unit, whatever) and a last node that describes the particular library (i.e. LOADLIB, JCLLIB, COPYLIB, ect.).

We've seen this TS ask the same question over and over and over in previous topics.
