Batch programs RA4$CD33 / DEB$CD33
For the //SORTIN DD the user must define either a pre-allocated dataset using the DCB format RECFM=FB,LRECL=132. If a temporary file is used, the DCB=RECFM=FB, LRECL=132 must be defined by the user or an ABEND will be issued as e.g.the DFSORT has no DCB information.
RA/2 Version 2.9.2 contains the enhancement allowing now to utilize generic filters e.g. PARM=‚%CIC*,NTV*.**‘ as well. This feature was already built-in for PGM=DEB$CD33 in RA2002.
