General Information

The data set must be cataloged and it must be a partitioned data set.

The PDS cannot be used with the DAYS, WDAYS, MONTHS, CONFCAL, RETRO, and DATES parameters.

The PDS parameter is usually used to schedule a mission that will compress the library.

System libraries (such as SYS1.LINKLIB) should not be compressed using the standard compression procedure. Therefore, BMC recommends that the WRN option of the TASKTYPE parameter be used.

Note: PDS does not work with PDSE-type libraries because they will always appear to be 100% full.
