If it;s needed to IPL then it must be PDS. AFAIK, anything that you dynamically add after PDSE support is active can be PDSE.

(sounds like the opening line the person speaks when sharing at an AA meeting, doesn't it. At least that's how TV portrays it). I'm working on the Modify System Layout section and I have been requested to make all PDSs into PDSEs. Now I know that there are exemptions to this (SYS1.LPALIB, etc). Does anyone have a complete list of datasets that you shouldn't convert to PDSEs? My list shows 943 PDS datasets total, regardless of eligibility.
