Does REPRO perform an append to a dataset?

Hi,
I'm trying to understand that, if REPRO perform an append to a dataset, in case the ALLOC statement has a MOD? Or should I use IEBGENER?
I verified for all non-VSAM datasets and it is working fine that is there are no error messages. However, when I check to see if the second append to a dataset worked, it looks like the dataset was overridden, rather than appended to.

tested with
Code: Select all
****** ***************************** Top of Data ******************************
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2 Line(s) not Displayed
000003 //AMS EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,REGION=0M,COND=(0,NE)
000004 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
000005 //SYSIN DD *
000006 REPRO OUTFILE(TEST) INFILE(FIRST)
000007 REPRO OUTFILE(TEST) INFILE(SECND)
000008 //TEST DD DISP=MOD,DSN=ENRICO.MFTEST.PS
000009 //FIRST DD *
000010 FIRST
000011 //SECND DD *
000012 SECND
****** **************************** Bottom of Data ****************************
submitted THREE times to get
Code: Select all
VIEW ENRICO.MFTEST.PS Columns 00001 00072
Command ===> Scroll ===> CSR
****** ***************************** Top of Data ******************************
000001 FIRST
000002 SECND
000003 FIRST
000004 SECND
000005 FIRST
000006 SECND

The question is in TSO Part of the Forum, I've not tested it to be sure however ,I think it might be to do with using REPRO in TSO ...!?

Yes, I'm using IDCAMS under TSO and not in batch as enrico has showed. Will that makea difference?
