Matching Files or Not

Post by PonnamPavan » Fri Aug 11, 2017 5:56 pm

Hi ,

Here is my requirement....

Migrating applications from MAINFRAMES to MFED(new environment).

The issue with Migrating a step in JCL.

Condition: JOINT KEYS, ISRSUPC ( SUP-C) not working.

Step1 in the Current application: comparing two input files & reporting 1 if diff and 0 if same.

Solution1: Designed this step with IEBCOMPR, but this is reporting 8 if diff.
( as a result, MAXCC is changing to 8 instead of 1).

Solution2: Can write a COBOL program for the same but this type of 20 Other JCLs are there with different file length and different file format, hence not looking for the COBOL program.

Solution3: Designed this step with ICETOOL, but this is not reporting if any duplicates in any file.i.e

File1:
===========
Rec1: PAVAN
Rec2: PAVAN
Rec3: KUMAR
===========

File2:
===========
Rec1: PAVAN
Rec2: KUMAR
Rec3: KUMAR
===========

Expected Output: 1 ( since files miss match )

So, In spite of two records in file1 and only 1 record in file2, reporting as RC 0.


Could any body suggest solution for this requirement?
