If the VSAM is empty then copy job abends
There may be a situation where you have to copy a VSAM file
to a flat file and if the VSAM file for some reason is empty then
the sort copy job abends with abend code of U0016.
Please refer the following JCL
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=SORT//*//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*//SORTIN DD DSN=VSAM.DSN,DISP=SHR//SORTOUT DD DSN=FLATFILE.DSN,// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)//SYSIN DD *SORT FIELDS=COPY/*
You can bypass this abend by specifying the VSAMEMT=YES parameter with
SORT
Here is an example of the situation
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=SORT,PARM=’VSAMEMT=YES’//*//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*//SORTIN DD DSN=VSAM.DSN,DISP=SHR//SORTOUT DD DSN=FLATFILE.DSN,// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)//SYSIN DD *SORT FIELDS=COPY/*
