o At times I've needed to resort to PDS rather than PDSE because of cross-plex sharing constraints on PDSE. o Does PDSE impose a stricter constraint on number of records in a single member than PDS? Perhaps 16Mi? o Could an installation convert *all* its PDS to PDSE and never deal with PDS again? Is this precluded only by the scatter-load limitation? What abour PARMLIB-type data sets? o A PDS with RECFM=U can contain both load modules and non-load module data members. The analogous is not possible with PDSE. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
