I'm sorry - but it does not sound like a "complete question" to me. Can you please rephrase it? Is it the question from some in-house quiz? This
What is the function of DD name parameter with a 2 part structure; Audit.Report ?
is not some general/universal statement for everyone. Which Audit Report? The part of my application I support these days, does not have any Audit-Report while my previous project was full of Audit-reports and every Audit-report was different but no one, other than me, on this Forum know about them.

The original question is an incredibly poor example of a test question. Hopefully whoever posted this has corrupted the question when posting.

Given the "right" answer per the interview, the question appears to ask about overriding a DD statement when executing the job.

Does your post have anything to do with the first post of this topic? If not, you need to start a new topic for your question.

Hopefully, you have taught your students about overrides . . . And most everything else that would be used when they have jobs. If you are being paid to teach JCL, you should already have many questions and answers that you would have used while teaching.
Have a good one

1st question
1. proc1
proc2
up to proc5 is there if i want to call proc1 and proc5how can u write the code.
-->
I think your job having 5 steps calling 5 Procs

step1 - Proc 1
Step2- Proc2
Step3 - Proc3
Step4 - Proc4
Step5 - Proc5

Here you want to call only Proc1 and Proc5

Using IEBEDIT utility slected step can be executed.

In this case pass STEP1 and STEP5 to jes2/jes3 thru INTR(Internal reader) using IBM untility IEBEDIT

2nd question:-
sysut1, sysut2, upto sysut5 isthere i want to concatinate the 1 one and 5th one how can u concatinate write the code.

-->

This can be done using "REFER BACK"

Example : STEP1 having SYSUT1, SYSUT2, SYSUT3,SYSUT4, SYSUT5 DDNAME

//newdd1 dd *.STEP1.SYSUT1
dd *.STEP1.SYSUT5

Thanks,
Jyothi

jyothinnag, What question are you trying to answer? Your post bears no resemblance to the question posed. Are you trying to ask a new question? If so you should have started a new topic as the post immediately before yours states.
