Thanks Natarajan/Anuj,
Actually once i came to know about the keyword 'INCLUDE' from you people, i did some more research, and then i optimized my JCLs as below.
I created a PDS and stored all the symbolics there as below.
PDS : PRATIK.SYMBOLIC(KEYWORDS)
Contents of this MEMBER:
//SET SYMBOL1=...,SYMBOL2=..., SYMBOL3=..., ...ETC
And then in all my 12 JCLS, i have included them as below:
//JOB CARD
// JCLLIB ORDER=(PRATIK.SYMBOLIC)
//SYMBOL INCLUDE MEMBER=KEYWORDS
.
.
.
.
.
Down the line, in all the JCLS, those symbolics are used.
In this way, it solved my problem, and now so much of the manual work is reduced.
Thanks very much once again.
JCL Query- Urgent.
