Is there any way to support members with names upto 10 characters?

We are trying to port an AS/400 application to the z/OS, but I can't seem to fing any solution to handle the 10 character names as AS/400 allows.

I think PDSEs may be able to handle them in some fashion, but PDS will certainly not nor will ISPF or any of the utilities. The PDS directory interfaces like STOW, BLDL, etc do not allow long names. You'll need to do your own hashing and mapping at the application level.
