Error description
A typical DIR command in FTP returns a list of datasets, including additional attributes describing each dataset. However, the dataset organization (DSORG) field is not displayed, even though FTP has access to this information. As a result, there is no direct way by which a user can use the DIR output to determine if a dataset is a basic PDS or an extended PDS (PDSE).
