Hi John, Yes, I did notice that.
Checking the jcl the first reference to the dataset in question is //M4OLD DD DSN=HLQ.PUBLIC.MASTER,DISP=(OLD,PASS,CATLG), // UNIT=ETAPE,EXPDT=99000 The second reference is a Icegener //COPY.SYSUT2 DD DSN=HLQ.PUBLIC.MASTER,DISP=(OLD,KEEP) One would think Expdt=99000 should have been coded here but that is not the case.

Hi Dave, I'm sure that you noticed but the CRTDT changed with RGWOPMSC @ 2009142 20.18.36.15. It went from CRTDT=09135 EXPDT=99000 at 20.18.01.43 to CRTDT=09142 EXPDT=00000 at 20.18.36.15. And it looks like the same job? I don't know how to read DAF but could a step in the job (SYSUT2) opened the tape for output and changed TMS?
