In my system the dir blocks are 0 in both cases. I've tried different runs and the info command worked differently from time in time.
In most cases it say "I/O Error" with "An I/O error occurred while reading the PDS directory.". Other times everything seems to be ok but of course any edit try returns "BLDL error" with "I/O error, insufficient virtual storage, or other BLDL error.". Maybe a minor correction could be asked to IBM. Best regards.
