I have a program that reads a KSDS via CIs.

While adding support for EF I put the following comments:

".Added Extended Addressability KSDS support. In the EA KSDS, RBA  
 in index records is expressed as relative CI number: this means  
 that it needs to be multiplied by CI length to calculate a true  
 RBA value.                                                       
                                                                  
.Converted RPL OPTCD from RBA to XRBA (this is required if        
 Ext-Addr KSDS with size above 4GB is being processed: RBA        
 should work until 4GB RBA is reached. It would fail from 4GB and 
 above). Although, apparently, with PTF for APAR OW43595 applied -
 XRBA is required for Extended Addressability datasets regardless 
 of dataset size."

I do not know if any of the above would apply to ESDS/ your application
though.

Hth...
