gans79,

Where did you get that from ? In Multi threading environment if one process did not close the vsam file and another pgm tried to open it then you would get a file status of 90. In this case Verify would solve it. However there are many other ways when you would get a filestatus of 90. And verify wouldn't solve it.

1. Is the vsam cluster you are trying to open an Variable block file?

2. Do you have BLOCK CONTAINS 0 in FD section for this file? Is it an input file or an output file?

Btw verify Operand is explained in detail in IDCAMS manual along with examples here
