parameter is as a KEEP then the data set is not in the
catalog list. But it is kept in the DASD volumes.So, for the

Hi,
If KEEP declared in normal disposition. Permanent data set
is to be kept on the volume serial number when job is
executed in successful execution.
If Keep declared in abnormal disposition. Permanent data
set is to be kept on the volume serial number when job is
executed in unsuccessful execution.
