All that the STOW macro itself does is build the parameter list that is passed to SVC 21. The parameter list is described in chapter 4 of the book MVS Diagnosis: Reference, GA22-7588-10 (vintage April, 2008; the version that I have).
The Assembler code that updates the PDS or PDSE directory to correspond with the parameter list request is not currently available to customers. The results of a STOW macro's having executed can be seen in the mapping macro IHAPDS, which maps the directory entry for a PDS or a PDSE.
