Not sure of how to indentify via JCL, but it can be
identified in COBOL program through the SELECT clause
SECLECT file ASSIGN TO FileSystemID-Filename
Here, FileSystemID identifies a file as either of the
following
a) VSAM - (Coded as VSA or VSAM; E.g. SELECT FILE1 ASSIGN
TO VSA-MyFile)
b) STL - STL File System (E.g. SELECT FILE1 ASSIGN TO STL-
MyFile)
c)RSD- Record Sequential Delimited File System.
If the FileSystemID is ommited, then the runtime option
FILESYS treats the file as VSAM.
