I haven't used this beast since last century.... I can't quite figure out a couple of things:
1) is there a way to PUNCH all members of an FB/80 source PDS and NOT prepend each record with an ASA or M control characters? I'm seeing the output as FBA/81 with the character "V" as the ASA control character, which doesn't make much sense. 2) Does anyone know if I specify DISP=SHR on SYSUT1 for a PDS if there is a data integrity problem if another job adds a member or even compresses the PDS? Thanks!
