Paul, I forgot to answer you last question. I suspect the answer is WAD. The comments in the Data Areas manual for those two fields say "Date loaded" and "Time loaded", so when you reload the PDSE via IEBCOPY reload then it is newly loaded. At least, that's the excuse I would use. HRECALL probably doesn't use IEBCOPY under the covers (more likely some track-by-track or cylinder-by-cylinder I/O copy operation).

Using NFS client on Solaris, I see fraction of second granularity, so it must be something else. NFS Ref. mentions FAMS (File Access Management Services), with no hint of an API. Interesting. If I HMigrate then recall a PDSE, the timestamps shown by NFS are unchanged. If I IEBCOPY unload then reload, those timestamps show the time of the reload. Bug, WAD, or both?
