Not sure of how to indentify via JCL, but it can be
identified in COBOL program through the SELECT clause
SECLECT file ASSIGN TO FileSystemID-Filename
Here, FileSystemID identifies a file as either of the
following
a) VSAM - (Coded as VSA or VSAM; E.g. SELECT FILE1 ASSIGN
TO VSA-MyFile)
b) STL - STL File System (E.g. SELECT FILE1 ASSIGN TO STL-
MyFile)
c)RSD- Record Sequential Delimited File System.
If the FileSystemID is ommited, then the runtime option
FILESYS treats the file as VSAM.

1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
