Operate z/OS Data Sets and UNIX Files¶

IBM z/OSMF collection provides several modules to work with z/OS data sets and UNIX files. You can use these modules to retrieve the contents of a sequential data set, a member of a partitioned data set (PDS or PDSE), or the contents of a z/OS UNIX System Services (USS) file from the remote z/OS system, and save them on Ansible control node.
