[CAUTION: This Email is from outside the Organization. Unless you trust the sender, Don't click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] I'll freely admit I am rusty in this area, but I hope this is an easy question. I know a shop where the TELNET PROFILE dataset is a PDS. We found this today making a minor update and a space abend. All 16 extents full. Compressing while is use being one problem, I'd like to reallocate a new PDS/E or Library or PO-E, whatever the proper term. But my question is ... is there any restriction against using this file type? Must it be an old-fashioned PDS? I know there were some limitations, years ago, but I thought we were beyond most of those. But I have not kept up for years. Thanks much everyone.
