The OSVSREWRITE option specifies whether to permit the WRITE statement for sequential files that are open for output. If so, these WRITE statements behave exactly like REWRITE statements.
OSVSREWRITE={ON|OFF}
ON | Permit the WRITE statement for sequential files that are open for output. |
OFF | Do not permit the WRITE statement for sequential files that are open for output. |
Default: | OFF |
This parameter can be set globally only; that is under the tag [XFH-DEFAULT]. You cannot set the parameter for an individual file.
