&RECORG The data set record organization, one of: KS VSAM key sequenced (KSDS) ES VSAM entry sequenced (ESDS) RR VSAM relative record (RRDS) LS VSAM linear FS VSAM linear zFS data set
That's from the DFSMS manual ________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> on behalf of Lizette Koehler <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2018 10:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: ZFS RECORG=FS Note - You cannot code FS for an LS dataset. That will not work. zFS are Linear and would use LS I have never coded RECORG in any thing that uses zFS Files. Either during the DEF LINEAR or when using then in JCL or other actions. I am not sure why you want to use it for your process. Please post the documentation that requires the use of RECORG for this process. This does not make sense to me.
