Hi Group,

I tried Altering the VSAM file with the below JCL but I was not able to do so :

My JCL :

//A255209$ JOB MSGCLASS=X,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),CLASS=B,
// REGION=0M,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD
ALTER -
xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxxx.DATA -
SHAREOPTIONS(3 3)

Please guide me.

Take a look at the IEC141I 013-34 Message and see what it says. For some reason you did not post the real job with the real dataset name, maybe there is something wrong there.

Hello,

Yes, you need to post the submitted jcl from the failed job.

Also the DEFINE for the vsam dataset.

The messages in SYSPRINT appear to indicate an error opening SYSIN. If the JCL in your initial post is accurate you should be able to resolve the error yourself.

Old eagle eye Steve recognized the problem, but you would have probably found it too if you would have examined the error message, in any case look at your SYSIN DD statement, there is something missing in it, like Steve says you should be able to find the error yourself now.
