A PDS/E is not a perfectly matching replacement for a PDS. I would
expect some differences in how the two are handled.
PDS/E is PDS Extended. Better version of PDS. PDSE is created to
solve some problems with PDS. One of the problems which are solved
in PDSE is improved directory integrity.
"There is no mechanism to stop the PDS directory from being
overwritten if a program mistakenly opens it for sequential output.
If this happens, the directory is destroyed, and all the members
are lost."
The sentence above is from SG246106.
