SRMJOB01—DFDSS compress and release data set space

The SRMJOB01 skeleton JCL member is coded in the ACT_JOB parameter.

This is basic DFDSS JCL that using the MINSEC parameter to compress and release data set space. You should review IBM documentation for DFDSS control statements before implementing this solution.

In the following skeleton JCL example, each record would cause the control statements to be repeated because they are encompassed in the DO loop. Therefore, in this example, the end result would be the submission of one batch job that contains 25 DD statements matched to 25 paired compress and release statements, one for each data set. This example assumes ACT_COUNT=25 is coded and that there are actually 25 data sets that match the FLST/RLST criteria. For a full explanation about skeleton tailoring, see Skeleton-tailoring.
