The sample SORTBKPT DD statement which follows identifies the breakpoint data set
for which disk space has already been allocated.
Figure 1. Sample SORTBKPT DD Statement
This SORTBKPT DD statement defines the breakpoint data set for which disk space has previously been allocated. The data set name must be the same name which was specified when the space for the breakpoint data set was allocated. DISP=(OLD,KEEP) is specified so that this statement does not have to be changed if MAXSORT is restarted. The DCB information should not be coded because MAXSORT supplies these values. If a VOLSER was coded when the disk space for the breakpoint data set was allocated, the same VOLSER must be specified in the SORTBKPT DD statement.
