What is that You did not understand when You were told
why post in the JCL section ?
You should have noticed that there are two sections expressly for <SORT> related questions
find out which <SORT> flavor You are running ...
( ICE... messages indicate DFSORT, WER... messages indicate SYNCSORT )
and post Your questions there
both DFSORT and SYNCSORT sections are followed by TOP experts from the relative companies
so just by asking in the right place You will get answers directly for the best!
even if for the most part the two products behave in the same way and accept the same parameter
to find the bes fir solution it is necessary that the people willing to help know what <SORT> product
You are using, otherwise everybody is wasting time here.
