XDC is nothing but taking the snap shot of the job run in spool

go to the SDSF there we need to write XDC infront of the job.

Don't presume that all of us know what an acronym means. Unless you're in a shop which uses SDSF (I'm not) then it doesn't mean anything to the rest of us.

psankar,

what happens when you enter xdc in front of a production job?

JCL, SQL and code in programs have an irritating habit of doing what you say,
not what you meant.

XDC is a command for saving the spool data after a JCL had been executed/run.
