What is a VSAM split?

Answer Posted / guest

If there isn't enough space in the control interval VSAM
performs a control interval split by moving some records to
the free control intervals. If there isn't a free control
interval VSAM performs a control area split by allocating a
new control area and moving half of the control intervals to it.
