Hi,
I am using IEFBR14 to delete files created in steps below the delete step. the purpose is while testing we will need to create the file again in consecutive runs, and cannot go to start 3.4 every time to delete it.
I coded the disposition of the file as (mod,delete,delete), but this is not working when the file doesnt exist in dasd. Please suggest the exact disposition which will work in all conditions(file exists or not)
Thanks,
Karthikeyan.

you are doing something wrong, not enough dcb parms for example.
often you need additional parms other than DSN and DISP. SPACE for instance.
by the way, IEFBR14 does nothing. It is the DISP of the DS that deletes the DS.
that is a really useless comment. what did the system tell you in the jesmsgs; it certainly did not say, it did't work.this is not working
