TERSE works for both sequential and PDS, but with PDS you have to specify
directory blocks on the output to unterse it.
In my own JCL I do this:
//MYJCL    JCLLIB ORDER=BOLAN.MY.PROCLIB
//         SET SPACE='(CYL,(200,20,250),RLSE)'
//UN1      EXEC UNTRSPDS,INDS=&TRSDSN.

and in my proclib I have this member:
//UNTRSPDS PROC INDS=NULLFILE,DATE=
//DELOUT   EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1      DD  DISP=(MOD,DELETE),SPACE=(TRK,(0)),UNIT=SYSDA,
//             DSN=SERVE2.&INDS.&DATE.
//UNTERSE  EXEC PGM=TRSMAIN,PARM=UNPACK
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*
//INFILE   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=&INDS..TRS
//OUTFILE  DD  DSN=*.DELOUT.DD1,
//             UNIT=SYSDA,
//             DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
//             SPACE=&SPACE.
//DELTRSIN EXEC PGM=IEFBR14,COND=(0,LT,UNTERSE)
//DD1      DD  DISP=(OLD,DELETE),UNIT=SYSDA,
//             DSN=*.UNTERSE.INFILE,
//             SPACE=(TRK,(0))
//         PEND
