I looked (programmatic) into JESYSMSG file. A ddname defined in JCL (not
dynamically allocated) concatenates 5 datasets. The first 4 datasets
reported as retained by msgIGD104I. The last dataset was reported as KEPT by
message IEF285I. All datasets are defined in the master  catalog with same
devtype. Another concatenating DD is reported as the first dataset by
IEF285I and the rest by IGD104I.

Any reason for MVS to report with different messages on datasets that are
allocated on the same volume and cataloged in the mastcat?

Thanks for your ideas.
