Answer Posted / raghav
Its not possible to identify just by seeing job,
one way to know is try to do hyper Browse on that file, If
it opens then its not a VSAM.
How to do Hyper browse:
Tpye HB on command line and keep the cursor on that file
and press enter, if its a seq file it will be opened in
browse mode.
