The Rexx API to SDSF is very useful for this sort of thing.

I have an EXEC that extracts every JES data set from a (list of) jobID(s) to
an individual member of a UNIX directory.

Advantages of UNIX files:
o More flexible namespace and hierarchial directories.
o Not constrained by unlike attributes.

Disadvantages of UNIX files:
o Accommodation of binary data is cumbersome.
o Narrow-mindedness of legacy utilities.  (I fault the Legacy utilities, not 
the UNIX FS.)
o Other?
