I was not aware that the STOW would also work on a PDSE.  A PDSE is a not
like a PDS in structure.  So I am not clear on how the STOW would work for a
PDSE.

What specifically are you trying to do with the STOW macro?

It would be helpful to know what problem you are trying to solve so that we
can provide more accurate answers.


Within the book you cite is the following

PDSE directory entry returned by DESERV (SMDE data area)

z/OS V1R9.0 MVS Program Management Advanced Facilities
SA22-7644-07

This section describes the format of a PDSE entry returned by the DESERV
macro. This is the SMDE data area, which is mapped by the IGWSMDE mapping
macro. The formats shown here are specific to PDSE program libraries.

The system managed directory entry (SMDE) can represent either a program
object in a PDSE or a load module in a PDS. The SMDE also represents both
primary (member) entries and aliases. The SMDE consists of several sections
that appear depending on the type of directory entry being provided:

    * Primary entry for a load module: BASIC+NAME+PMAR (including PMARR)
    * Alias entry for a load module: BASIC+NAME+PNAME+PMAR (including PMARR)
    * Primary entry for a program object: BASIC+NAME+TOKEN+PMAR (including
PMARL)
    * Alias entry for a program object: BASIC+NAME+PNAME+TOKEN+PMAR
(including PMARL)
