I have a situation wherein I need to create a ESDS VSAM Cluster similar to one which is already existing. I tried doing this using IDCAMS step. I was able to define the cluster successfully but CISIZE, Bufferspace, doesn't match. I tried adding CISIZE but that is not a valid option for ESDS.
Please correct me if I am wrong. Also advice me on how can accomplish this task

Thanks,
Prashant

apart, IIRC, linear datasets

Take a look at the manual, and pay attention to the OPTIONAL parameters that can be used in the DEFINE CLUSTER command.
