>This EXPDT setting is *NOT* honoured. Is this WAD (Working As Designed) with SyncSort?
This is not SYNCSORT. MVS allocation does not put the EXPDT in until you close the file. It doesn't make sense to do it at open time. Then, you wouldn't be able to do anything with the file. To me, what you're attempting doesn't make sense, either? You want the sort step to fail? - -teD 300,000 Kilometres per Second Not only is it a good idea!
