Hello,
I am trying to create 40 or more output files out of an single input file by applying various INCLUDEs on these 40 OUTFIL statements and the job is abending with "WER039A INSUFFICIENT VIRTUAL STORAGE". Is SYNCSORT trying to fit I/O buffers below 16MB line. The conditions are complex in some cases and have more than5 fields to be compared with OUTREC also being applied to the OUTFIL statement.
Is there any way to avoid it. One option is obviuously to reduce the number of output files being created but that will increase the job's CPU ands Elapsed time which is a major conern for us. But apart from it, is there any option that can help - like VSCORE / VSCORET / CORE. I read in the manual that when DSM (Dynamic Storage Management) is active, specifying these options may not help and the values are just taken as a guidance. And we the DSM active at our shop. I tried option VSCORET=64M but it didn't work.
I tried various values on the REGION parameter with 0M and nothing worked.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
