Required
PARMGEN name
RTE_SMS_PDSE_FLAG
Description
If the non-VSAM data sets are to be managed by SMS, you can specify Y to allocate PDSE data sets instead of PDS data sets. PDSE data sets do not require compression and are not limited by a predefined number of directory entries.

Even if you specify Y, most load module libraries (RKANMOD, RKANMODL, RKANMODR, and RKANMODU) are not allocated as PDSE data sets. The main exception is RKANMODP, a load module library used for the SMP/E CALLLIBS facility.
