Description

The current mainframe module supports partitioned data sets only.

I propose adding the following improvements:-

• sequential data set support
• GDG data set support

I propose the following parameters to be added:-
1. --datasettype <p|s|g> (p = partitioned data set, s = sequential, g = GDG)
2. --tape <true|false> (true = data set is on tape, false = data set it not on tape)
