Hi,

Can anyone direct me to a utility that can extract IMS database definition and produce a report.

Many Thanks,
aplosdc

Don't know what you want in the report. whay can't you look the DBD source which is the definition of the database

I expect the report to contain a hierarchical diagram or details of all the segments with key, record length etc etc which can be ported to a tool. The tool would them generate a schema diagram.

I think what you are looking for is the DBD source. It got everything you are looking for except the diagram.
