Version of Created PS-E Data Set

Because there is no propagation of the PS-E DSNTYPE Version, when IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS creates a PS-E dataset, the results depend only on the combination of JCL parameters and SMS parameters. In a COPY step, the JCL parameters come from COPY TO parameters (including direct specification, DATACLAS and TYPE). If those are not enough to determine all attributes, the SMS parameters from the Destination system come into play.

Select Stats Display

The DSNTYPE Version is displayed by IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS v6.4 or later Select Stats only when all the following are true:
  • The TO data set is created (not replaced).
  • It is created by IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS v6.4 or later.
  • The DSNTYPE and VERSION are specified in the COPY TO section (either directly or via SYSOPTS or the TYPE parameter).
