Answer / shivanadri naveen kumar
when ever we create a dataset by using the disposational
parameter is as a KEEP then the data set is not in the
catalog list. But it is kept in the DASD volumes.So, for the
retrieving that data set. if we are not supliying vol serial
number the OS search the data set in catalog list and raise
the error dataset not available....for avaiding this problem
we need to suply the vol serial number to jcl...
Ex
VOL=SER=xxxx------->here xxxx is the vol serial number...

Hi,
If KEEP declared in normal disposition. Permanent data set
is to be kept on the volume serial number when job is
executed in successful execution.
If Keep declared in abnormal disposition. Permanent data
set is to be kept on the volume serial number when job is
executed in unsuccessful execution.
