Can PDSE be in the linklist or lpalist? If not, this is like IBM not having a way for SNA channel attached 3270s as console devices because VTAM was set up as a started task. If PDSE is a basic access method, somehow having it as a started task seems weird to me. Is PDSE a reliable access method now with no greater error rate than PDS?
