What is the difference between a PDS member and a GDG
Generation ? Is it only this, that with a generation we can
use +1, 0, -1 etc while with PDS member we can not ?
Answer Posted / karthik.ss
IN GENERATION DATA GROUP ,GDS (GENERATION DATA SET ) WIL BE
CREATED AUTOMATICALLY WITH PREFIX GXXXX.VXX. BUT IN CASE PDS
(PARTITION DATA SET) WE CAN'T CREATE. IN ORDER TO ACCEPT A
DS (DATA SET) WE HAVE TO USE ZERO FOR CURRENT DS AND -1 FOR
PREVIOUS ONE BUT IN CASE OF THE PDS WE CAN ACCESS ONLY
THROUGH THE NAME OF THE MEMBER.
