If you are thinking about recataloging them in the right order using
DEFINE NONVSAM, it has been a while since you had to figure this out on
your own. In every supported release of z/OS, IDCAMS DEFINE with
RECATALOG will figure out the order of multivolume data set entries for you.
I had to go all the way back to z/OS V1.12 to find this announcement text:
"The IDCAMS DEFINE RECATALOG command is enhanced for multivolume and
striped data sets. This new function is designed to automatically create
catalog entries with correctly ordered volume lists while eliminating
any duplicate volumes that might have been specified. This will make it
easier to recatalog multivolume and striped VSAM data sets."

And consider multi-volume datasets, you should reconstruct their order.
