Unable to create composite keys for virtual datasetWant to use AA values for keyFix
AA (Absolute Address) values are associated with a physical location. With a regular dataset, using AA values would be fine. In the case of a virtual dataset, it doesn't have it's own physical location since it is a result of a logical combination. So, AA values aren't valid for virtual datasets. For virtual
datasets, composite keys would have to be used.
If DMSII XE Extended Data Set is available on the mainframe, DMSII RSN values may be used for the key.
