• The attributes: EXPDT(99365) BLKSIZE(24000) BFTEK(A)
• The name of the first data set: FORMAT.INPUT
• The name of the second data set: TRAJECT.INPUT

attrib dsattrs expdt(99365) blksize(24000) -
bftek(a)

allocate dataset(format.input) new block(80) -
space(1,1) volume(111111) using(dsattrs)

alloc da(traject.input) old bl(80) volume(111111) -
using(dsattrs)

free attrlist(dsattrs)
