Hi guys,

We are running CICS TS2.2, under z/OS 1.4.
We also have a VSAM data set type ESDS that has to be greater than 4GB in size. So, we had defined it as an extended format and extended addressability in the storage class. However we got the DFHFC0966, codes 8504, 0008,0068 when we attempted to open that data set which was defined with the extended attribute, and so, the open failed. At the CICS Application Programming Guide, we've found a note telling us almost exactly this. The only difference is that our data set is a RLS. But we thought that, that really didn't matter.(maybe???) So, if we understand that this data set has to be greater then 4GB, and knowing that CICS does not support ESDS data sets that are defined with these extended attributes, do we have to go to a CICS TS 3.x, or do we have to go to a z/OS 1.5, or what?.

Tks in advanced
