Names of exported data sets

If you choose to export data, you are requesting that the data be written to a sequential data set. The names of all exported data sets follow a specific format.

About this task

Important: The content in this section was created for and applies to the original persistent data store, referred to as PDS V1. A new PDS version (referred to as PDS V2) now exists. PDS V1 will eventually be deprecated.

The names of all exported data sets follow this format:

rhilev.rte.Annnnnnn
where:
  • rhilev is the high-level qualifier of all data sets in the persistent data store.
  • rte is the mid-level qualifier of all data sets in the persistent data store, as you specified during configuration.
  • A is a required character
  • nnnnnnn is a sequential number
