When should DISP=MOD is used?

Answer Posted / peter

Disp=New tells the system to create a NEW dataset at step
initiation, so that the program can use the newly created
dataset.
The dataset is NOT created at the end of the job-step, "step
termination", but the system looks at the second positional
parameter in the DISP=(NEW,xxx) whether the dataset should
be kept or not!!
