Is this accurate? KSAMUTIL reports "THE REFERENCED FILE IS NOT A KSAM
FILE  (1062)". I realize that one can build an indexed file that is not
KSAM. Yet the LISTF ,7 gives:

FILE: I213450.PUB.HP01

KEY         KEY TYPE            KEY LOCATION      KEY SIZE   DUP/RDUP
---         --------            ------------      --------   --------
  1         BYTE                           1            66   NONE
  2         BYTE                          67            66   RDUP
  3         BYTE                         133            66   RDUP

NUM KSAM KEYS: 3                               FIRST KSAM RECORD: 0
LANGUAGE     : ENGLISH                         REUSE RECORD     : YES
PRIMARY KEY  : RANDOM                          COMPUTE BLK SIZE : DEFBLK
VERSION      : 2                               DATA BLOCK SIZE  : 4096

>> All "KSAM" files including I213450, are built as KSAMXL files on the
>> HP.  They are built using the "BUILD" command, with all of the file
>> definitions, including the KEYS, KSAMXL option, and the REUSE option.
>> Doing a "LISTF I213450.PUB,2" will not indicate in the CODE column
>> that this file is a KSAM file.  However, if you do a "LISTF
>> I213450.PUB,7", it will show you all the KEY parameters for this KSAM
>> file.
>>
>> These "new" KSAMXL files are more efficient in that a reorg is not
>> necessary, if the "REUSE" option is specified.  Also, there is no need
>> to rebuild key files after system crashes.
