I think this explains the passed data set restriction seen. I believe the example found in section 4.1.1.2.1 is incorrect and is a doc error.

When a passed data set is received, the passed data set information is no longer available to later DD statements in the receiving step or later steps. Therefore, a VOLUME=REF parameter that refers to the passed data set must appear on a DD statement before the receiving DD statement. For example: //JEX JOB ACCT27,'GALE RUCINSKI' //S1 EXEC PGM=A //DA DD DSNAME=MYDATA,DISP=(NEW,PASS), // SPACE=(800,15),UNIT=DISK //S2 EXEC PGM=B //DB DD DSNAME=REPT,DISP=(NEW,PASS), // SPACE=(800,15),UNIT=DISK,VOLUME=REF=MYDATA //DC DD DSNAME=*.S1.DA,DISP=SHR -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Gilmartin Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2011 11:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Second Reference to Temporary Data Set Fails On Fri, 28 Jan 2011 18:14:50 -0800, Edward Jaffe wrote: > >It fails with: > >IEF212I JCLERROR IGMLENU SYSUT2 - DATA SET NOT FOUND > >If it can find the data set for SYSUT1, then why can't it find it for SYSUT2? >It >works fine when a normal cataloged data set is used.

I found, to the contrary, that it's supposed to work: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/iea2b560/4.1.1.2.1 ... but fails with the error you got.
