when ever we create a dataset by using the disposational
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
retrieving that data set. if we are not supliying vol serial
number the OS search the data set in catalog list and raise
the error dataset not available....for avaiding this problem
we need to suply the vol serial number to jcl...
Ex
VOL=SER=xxxx------->here xxxx is the vol serial number...
