Hi,

Could you please help me in understanding all the entries that we get during the LISTCAT option of an KSDS VSAM dataset. Just for example PHYRECS/TRK - what does this mean ?? any example ??. Mainly it would be great if i get the information for the entries below.

1. The data CISIZE
2. The data CI/CA
3. The data HI-USED-RBA
4. The index RECTOTAL
5. The PHYRECS/TRK

Hi

I am trying to increase the performance of an VSAM KSDS dataset(Sequential processing). Currently the dataset does not support Extended Addressability. Now my question is..

1. Shall i use AMP=BUFNI,BUFND parmeter in the jcl or shall i use SMB technique(Ill have to make the dataset EA and then use AMP) ??

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the above two technique??

3. If anybody has experienced in using the above techniques please suggest me the best one ???

Note - I have already referred the REDBOOK Demystified.

Let me know if more informations are required.

Thanks in advance
