Hi I am facing a stange issue while running dfsort from java.
Whenever I run the dfsort on different address space with JZOS launcher JCL and if try to refer my sortout dataset in the subsequent step with OLD dispostion java dfsort is coming back and saying unable to allocate the sort out and it is allocated for some other job.
IKJ56225I DATA SET SSR.JSORT.OUTPUT.FILEDA ALREADY IN USE, TRY LATER+
IKJ56225I DATA SET IS ALLOCATED TO ANOTHER JOB OR USER

Any idea why it is happening. If I give the disposition share then the jobs going thru fine. Is there anyway to avoid this issue. DISP=old required for use in the subsequent step
Same happens for the input files comes from perious step and used in SORTIN with disposition old
