Hi,
when i tried to delete my dataset using iefbr14 it ran fine without any error code.while when i tried to delete the dataset with IDCAMS it issued an condition code of 16.
Can anyone explain why is that so

My jcl is as follows with IEFBR14.
//UEDBS10A JOB 'RAHUL',CLASS=C,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=UEDBS10.TEMPDS,DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE)
//
My jcl is as follows with IDCAMS:
//UEDBS10A JOB 'RAHUL',CLASS=C,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//DD1 DD DSN=UEDBS10.TEMPDS,DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE)
//

IDCAMS CREATING PROBLEM IN DELETING DATASET

IDCAMS does not create any problem,
the way You are using it creates a problem

IDCAMS will return a condition code 16 for a missing SYSPRINT ddname
the way You are using idcams is not the way it should
JCL ( in Your snippet ) does everything as in the IEFBR14 case
IDCAMS is supposed to have a SYSIN dd containing the IDCAMS commands
