To use DFSORT's SUBSET operator, you must have z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013 installed. Your sytnax is fine, but the message indicates that you don't have that PTF installed. The PTF has been available since July, 2008. Ask your System Programmer to install that PTF (it's free).

For complete details on the new functions available with PTF UK90013, see:
