IIRC no new dataset can be created with those attributes (keywords
ignored) but if an existing dataset has them it is still processed
accordingly. If the dataset is recreated (delete/define) or restored
the attributes will be removed.

I would think that 'allowing' and 'honoring' are two different things.
That is, the cluster may have the attribute in the catalog entry but the
code no longer does anything with it.
You see this in other contexts for depreciated keywords: '...checked for
syntax and ignored...'
HTH and good luck.

Our z/OS 1.11 system is allowing the IMBED attribute for new VSAM data
sets. Is this WAD?
