Would DFSORT at release 1.4 (z/OS 1.4 and I think OS/390 2.10) using EQUALS=VBLKSET produce the same results run after run if the input data were the same but produce different results when run under DFSORT 1.5 (All jobs ran with EQUALS=N)? I know what EQUALS= does, it's just that the results between two parallel runs always matched even back to os/390 2.10 and now they do not and the difference is in the sequence of duplicate records.
If the answer to the above is YES, is there some way to get 1.5 to produce the same results as I used to get under 1.4 (I don't know if the duplicate records were in input order or not under 1.4 so I don't know that EQUALS=YES would get me what I want, just that the two executions would always match before)?
