Restrictions in Creating a Direct Data Set Using QSAM z/OS DFSMS Using Data Sets SC23-6855-00 |
|
It is possible to create a direct data set using QSAM (no keys
allowed) or BSAM (with or without keys and the DCB specifies MACRF=W).
However, it is not recommended that you access a direct data set using
QSAM because you cannot request a function that requires the information
in the capacity record (R0) data field. For example, the following
restrictions would apply:
If a direct data set is created and updated or read within the same job step, and the OPTCD parameter is used in the creation, updating, or reading of the data set, different DCBs and DD statements should be used. |
