find the jcl that allocated the file.
why would you not want to use a utility whose sole purpose is to inform you of the files' attributes.
Is this another silly question like how to open a file without opening it? |

One has an index component and the other does not.
Other than relying on naming conventions, I don't see how you could.... |

Hard way -
Write a program (say COBOL) and you will come to know. |
