Mark's SDSF@DR program is a start, but it also allocates a separate sequential 
file for each job, albeit with good information about each job encoded in the 
DSN.

However, his program could easily be modified to create members in a PDS by 
using ISFPRTDISP='OLD' and ISFPRTDSN='desired.pds.dsname' (or perhaps better to 
avoid running out of room in the PDS, ISFPRTDSN='desired.PDSE.dsname') and 
ISFPRTMEMBER=jname.i instead of the technique it now uses.  Then all of the 
other ISFPRTxxxx variables can be set to null strings as they are ignored when 
ISFPRTDISP='OLD'.

If you have the free version of PDS86 from CBT or one of the commercial 
equivalents you could also set the ISPF statistics of the member you add to 
record when it was added to the PDS(E) and by whom, but that is optional.

I also noticed that Mark's program presumes that you need the ISFPRTVOLSER and 
ISFPRTUNIT fields for ISFPRTDISP='NEW' output.  Even for a sequential file, for 
purely SMS shops like my own you would instead want to specify all of the 
"class" variables and leave the volser and unit parameters null, like this:

ISFPRTSTORCLAS=storclas
ISFPRTMGMTCLAS='MCLARGE'
ISFPRTDATACLAS='DCLARGE'
ISFPRTUNIT=''
ISFPRTVOLSER=''

Where MCLARGE and DCLARGE are suitable defaults for your own SMS environment.

YMMV of course.  HTH.

Again, I'll recommend UNIX directories.  They allow keeping things
much better organized -- even a subdirectory for each step within
each job.
