Inserting and Adding Records

Record insertions in VSAM data sets occur in several ways:

PUT RPL OPTCD=DIR,NSP—Inserting records directly. VSAM remembers its position for subsequent sequential access.
PUT RPL OPTCD=DIR,NUP—Inserting a record directly. VSAM does not remember its position.
PUT RPL OPTCD=SEQ,NUP or NSP—Inserting records sequentially. VSAM remembers its position for subsequent sequential access.
PUT RPL OPTCD=SKP,NUP or NSP—Inserting records in skip sequential order. VSAM remembers its position for subsequent sequential access.
