Issue/Introduction

Does Disk support PDSE V2?

Environment

Release: Disk-Backup and Restore 12.5

Resolution

PTF RO92126 adds support for PDSE V2 data and program object libraries in Backup, Archive and Restore functions.
This support is enabled by adding a value of "PV2" to Sysparm USEDSSIO. 
 
PDSE Version 2 data sets will be backed up, archived and restored using existing SMS and DSS defaults.

Additional Information

MOVE and COPY functions for PDSE V2 will be supported in Disk r14.0.
 
For r12.5, PTF RO93242 should be applied so that PDSE V2 libraries will be bypassed in MOVE/COPY functions.
If not bypassed, the PDSE V2 libs are processed as PDSE V1 and past generations of members are not preserved.
