How are GDGs concatenated?..

Answer / guest

Generation Data Groups are concatenated by specifying each
dataset name and the generation number for all generations
of the generation data group. Otherwise to have all
generations of a generation data group, omit the generation
number. The DD statement will refer to all generations. The
result is the same as if all individual datasets were
concatenated. If generations are not on the same volume,
this will not work.
