Those manuals date back to the early 1980's and hence you are not likely to find them easily -- they predate the world wide web by 10 years or so. Furthermore, they are manuals for MVS/XA (extended architecture), an operating system that is many releases before the current z/OS operating system. Unless there is some specific reason you think you need them, you would be better off downloading and reading the IBM Redbook VSAM Demystified from http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/s ... .html?Open and DFSMS Macro Instructions for Data Sets from https://www-304.ibm.com/servers/resourc ... 0_v2r3.pdf This gives you the concepts in the Redbook, and the Macro Instructions manual has the current versions of the assembler macros to access VSAM data sets (Chapter 2 has examples as well).

When I tell somebody to RTFM or STFW I usually have the page open in another tab/window of my browser,
so that I am sure that the information requested can be reached with a very small effort 8-)
