How to list out a GDG base properties through REXX


How to know GDG base properties through REXX code; Of course we can view the GDG limit thru File-aid 3.2 option But need to list the properties on the fly and may be used in consecutive program/module. Hope made you clear and waiting for response! (Do let me know if any other information is required?)


Solution

  • One caveate to the above suggestion... If you only want GDG entries you may need to consider removing the keyword ALL on the LISTCAT ENTRY('XXX') ALL line. I believe the ALL word will list GDG & Non-GDG datasets that happen to match the catalog entry name.
