>>and the output seems to indicate DFSORT reads these in parallel.

Michael Babcock,

Are you using a COPY operation or a SORT operation?   For a SORT operation,
DFSORT does NOT do parallel processing on the input and output data sets.
For a COPY or MERGE operation, DFSORT does do parallel processing on the
input and output data sets

If you still have questions can you please send the complete joblog with
SORTDIAG DD DUMMY statement  coded in your JCL

Thanks,
