Monika,
Provided it is a PDS you can FREEZE the library in LLA to avoid BLDL IO. Non
load module PDS-E will not be honored as FROZEN by LLA.
There will be no member caching of non load module PDS or PDS-E in VLF
unless it is a REXX or CLIST using EXEC, and you specify the class for
IKJEXEC in you

Hello,
I am a COBOL Programmer, having a decent industrial experience of 3 Years,
now. I have good teaching ability, and a good power expression. I am able to
articulate myself well. I have a flair for writing, blogging, and I
regularly publish articles on my website http://www.mainframes360.com.
For those interested, despite not being listed as a supported O/S, it seems
you should be able to view this on Linux. If you happen to have installed
such monstrosities as flash and javascript.
I keep one such system (normally locked away in a dark cupboard), and was
able to pass (all) the system c

If you do an HLIST dsn(/) MCDS you will get the following

If you are planning to migrate from z/OS R10 or R11 to R12, you might
find this free webcast useful: "Accelerate your migration to z/OS
V1R12," presented by Marna Walle.
The webcast is scheduled for Thursday, May 26, 2011 at 11:00AM EDT.

Since many mainframe files are fixed number of columns for each field,

DLF is for Hiperbatch (only, IIRC). Hiperbatch can keep data sets
in memory if the data is accessed via QSAM or VSAM (no PDS Members).
You would need to move your data from a PDS member into a PS data set,
setup Hiperbatch and start DLF. See the "Hiper
