Hi Folks;
We normally used compress for DS or PDS when we require some space. Now please can anybody tell me that what exactly happens behind Compress? Obviously it gives us free space but how it works internally at MVS level.

I hope that I am clear enough with my question, if anybody has any idea please let me know !!!
