    Could someone tell me in which library I might find SSDYNALC?

    I've inherited an Assembler program that calls it, but when I run the job I get an 806 abend.

    If I knew which LOADLIB to include in my JCL, I would be delighted.

    I don't think SSDYNALC is a standard IBM routine. Is the program you have inherited from another company? Developed in-house? Part of an ISV product? If you cannot locate SSDYNALC do you have the source for the program that calls it in order to determine what SSDYNALC does?

    As far as I can tell, SSDYNALC is a program that dynamically allocates data sets in batch.

    Sounds awfully like a little routine to do an SVC 26 dynamic allocation... If so you can write your own based upon the parameters it is called with naturally.

    I get no Google hits on SSDYNALC, and it does not sound like an IBM name. I am going to guess that it is something local and you are going to have to find it or replace it.

     

    If you need to replace it take a look at BPXWDYN. (You should be able to Google it.) Easy to use and fully supported.

    Check out BPXWDYN (a text interface to dynamic allocation and dynamic output) as a possible replacement.

    Hi,

    If you do not want to write your own dyn alloc you might consider to invoke the z/OS BPXWDYN dynamic allocation service.

    It smells alot like a dynamic allocation handler for SyncSort. Do you have SyncSort in shop? Might be an equivalent call for your in-house sort.
