True, but maybe you can't tag the file due to lack of permissions. I don't understand the aversion to pipelines in Unix. Do you not use them at all in UNIX, or just not for this particular case? What's your plan if the encoding is an ASCII variant not supported with file tagging

Yes, that's correct. The ACS routines get control for new individual GDG generations at allocation time, not for catalog entries. The GDG base is a catalog entry and is created at IDCAMS DEFINE GDG time. So while the systemwide defaults can be set in IGGCATxx, they can be overridden by anyone
