CMPRS_PDS_ALLOW

Specifies whether PDS compression is allowed.

YES

Allows users to request PDS compression on a transfer-by-transfer basis, or by using a DEST member.

Note: This setting also implicitly provides automatic compression in response to an out-of-space condition.

NO

Disables the compression function within the server(s) to which it applies.

X37

Automatically invokes PDS compression if a z/OS system abend B37, D37, or E37 occurs during a transfer into a PDS data set.

Default: NO

Note: Any retryable transfer that is a result of an automatic compression from an out-of-space conditions (such as #XCOMM0221E DATASET OUT OF SPACE - PDS DATASET WILL BE COMPRESSED) is terminated if the retry also results in an out-of-space condition
