As far as i know (early MVS), no DDS are available on Mainframe. CL
counterpart is an interpreted script. DTAARA does'nt exist, ILE does'nt
exist, but COBOL/2 is available. Screen handling relies on CICS (completely
different from AS/400 way). A bit easier the convertion should be if /400
COBOL were SQL-COBOL.
Sincerely 
Domenico
