how many members can be created inside a single pds?
Answer Posted / praveen kumar bejjanki
The members to be created in single pds depends on the
value of the directory block we mention while creating the
PDS. suppose if directory block=1 then we can have 5
members. if dir blk=2 then 11 members.
the formula for no of members for the directory block is
6*n-1 where n=value of directory block
if n=1 then mem's=6*1-1=6-1=5
if n=2 then mem's=6*2-1=12-1=11 and so...on...
Correct me if this is wrong...
I hope this is the way we calculate the members in a PDS.
