CSI-SORT

The complete VSE sort package

Platform: z/VSE and VSEⁿ

CSI-SORT is the complete sort package for z/VSE.

Some Key Features:

  • Great for the basic requirements of a sort package at a lower cost
  • Provides compatibility for all DFSORT commands
  • Activate by including the CSI-SORT library in front of your current sort product’s library. Since parameters are used or ignored, no JCL changes are required.
  • Ask us about Data-Miner, or use OUTFIL or E35 exit, for more extensive formatting
  • Offers better performance for internal sorts without changing your applications
  • Features support for FIELDS=COPY and MERGE
  • All sorts are performed in your choice of data space or partition GETVIS
  • Involves smaller partition requirements when data space area is used
  • Interfaces for calls both from JCL (external) and from applications (internal)
  • A work file is used only if data exceeds allocated space
  • MERGE is treated like a sort without any arguments, allowing for one code path to improve performance and reduce complexity
  • Formatted output (OUTREC) is available and behaves like INREC
  • Support for tape and disk (including VSAM)
  • Support for E15, E32, and E35 exits
  • Support for INPFIL and OUTFIL exits
  • Support for reader input, and punch or print output
  • Full support for INCLUDE, OMIT, INREC, and SUM
