RRN is an *absolutely reliable* way to reference a specific record, regardless of the presence or absence of a unique key . . . so long as *you* have the file *open.*

If the file isn't open in *your* job, then the prudent thing to do is to treat RRNs as an "all bets are off" situation, given that *any* user with sufficient authority can do a RGZPFM on *any* file, at *any* time, so long as he or she can get an exclusive lock on it.
