Answer / gowri

If Deposition parameter is SHR and file is opened in extend
mode,then records will get appended

Answer / srinivas yadav

If the disp parameter is SHR and that same file is opened
in the extend mode then the file is treated as MOD.
MOD:It is used to append (add) the records.
Ex:Already 10 records are there in a file and i am adding 5
records to that of same file. so, by using disposition
parameter=MOD we can add the records to an already existing
file.

Answer / iswarya

If a disp parm is SHR, then the file will be allocated to the job only at the step where the file is being used.
