OPEN EXTEND or OUTINX

z/OS DFSMSdfp Checkpoint/Restart
SC23-6862-00

If the data set opens with the OUTINX or EXTEND options, and its DD disposition parameter was

DISP=NEW: there are no restrictions, because the data set reallocates prior to the restart.

DISP=OLD or DISP=SHR: the data set repositions after the last record added before the job terminated. It is possible to add records twice to the data set.

DISP=MOD: the following restrictions apply to a multivolume data set:
  • If the volume sequence does not point to the last volume, records overlay or an abend occurs.
  • If the volume sequence is not supplied, loading starts on the last volume on which the data set exists. For TAPE data sets only, if the end of data occurs on a volume other than the last allocated volume, processing starts on the wrong volume.
