I've always understood that SORTWKnn data sets could only reside on a single volume, but a co-worker coded DATACLAS=PSE on SORTWKnn DD cards and, as the DATACLASS dictated, 59 volumes were allocated to the SORTWKnn DD. Of course, simply because volumes were allocated doesn't mean they were actually written to. The sort step completed with RC=0, but I suspect that data was only written to the first volume. A quick search of the IBM documentation doesn't seem to provide a conclusive answer. Anyone got a clue?
