Would it work equally well with VOL=SER as VOL=REF? (I suspect that
was for portability. But I'd expect my admins to be pretty fussy
about who creates what on the PARMLIB volume.)
Well, my objectives were (arising from the ISV SMP/E "gripes" thread):
o Create the data set if it does not exist.
o Append to (not replace) the data set if it does exist.
o Allow the user optionally to specify VOLSER.
On experimenting, reading, and receiving input from this list,
I've lowered my sights and retreated to DISP=(NEW,{KEEP|CATLG})

I don't understand that part at all.
Thanks for the input,
