Hi Team,

We need to create the jcl to delete 100's of programs from multiple libraries so one my friend suggested me to use REXX.
I'm very new to rexx. Please help me on this.

Requirement is
1. PS file1 will have list of PDS for taking backup and deleting the components.

PS File1:

Code: Select all

AAAAAA.BBBBBB.CCCCCC ====> PDS1
BBBBBB.CCCCCC.DDDDDD ====> PDS2
CCCCCC.DDDDDD.EEEEEEE ====> PDS3
DDDDDD.EEEEEEE.FFFFFFFFF ====> PDS4

2. PS file2 will have list of members to copy and delete.
PS FIle2:

Code: Select all

MEM1
MEM2
MEM3
MEM4
MEM5

3.Another PDS to create the JCL.

Code: Select all

AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD

JCL should be as below in PDS as AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD(DELJCL1):

Code: Select all

//S010   EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
