CA EPIC for z/VSE does not control VSAM or VSAM-managed SAM datasets. Therefore no changes are required in your JCL. However, you can use DD statements to access an existing VSAM cluster or VSAM-managed SAM dataset. See the IBM documentation for further information.
You can have VSAM dataset location and activity recorded in the DSN Catalog. If you catalog the VSAM cluster using Online Manager (or TSIDMNT), this information will appear on the CA EPIC for z/VSE reports and displays, just as it does for non-VSAM datasets. At close time, CA EPIC for z/VSE logs the allocations used for any suballocated or unique VSAM clusters.
