To the external user there is no such thing as a directory block within a PDS-E - the member information is just taken from the general space within the dataset.

That will depend on a couple of things. A rule of thumb I have used is Loadlib 4 members per DIR Blk Source 7 member per Dir Blk if ISPF Statistics are OFF Source 4 member per Dir Blk if ISPF Statistics are ON I do not have numbers for PDS/E datasets and Directory Blocks. I have not looked at this in a while. But this usually works for me.
