This is part of the whole MVS schizophrenia on members IMHO. - Does not SVC 99 info retrieval return DSORG=PO for DSN=pds.name(member)? - Can you not open DSN=pds.name(member) with a BPAM DCB and do FIND and BLDL against it? - Why does DSN=pds.name(member),DISP=(OLD,DELETE) not delete just the member? (Yes, I know, because the documentation says so.)
I think all of the above are inconsistent with MVS's "philosophy" of treating pds.name(member) "just as though" it were a sequential dataset. Yes, yes, I know, it's always been this way and the documentation says so.
