Hi,
I have coded a JCL which generate RACF related report using ICETOOL. It is ended with Return Code of 16 and showing the following error,

In TOOLMSG for following the code
COPY FROM(RACFDATA) TO(OUT1) USING(RACF)

it shows,
ICE606I 0 DFSORT CALL 0001 FOR COPY FROM RACFDATA TO OUT1 USING RACFCNTL TERMINATED.
ICE602I 0 OPERATION RETURN CODE: 16

Kindly suggest me for this error or provide me any JCL which generates RACF report using ICETOOL.

//OUT1 DD DSN=A202191.RACF.TEMP1,DISP=MOD,
// UNIT=SYSDA,RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=27920

If your input file has RECFM=VB and you want the output file to have RECFM=FB, then you need to use DFSORT's VTOF and BUILD operands to do the conversion. For more details, see the "VB to FB conversion" Smart DFSORT Trick" at:

If you need more specific help, show me your complete JCL and control statements, indicate the RECFM and LRECL of the input and output files, and tell me which fields (positions) from the VB input file you want in the FB output file.
