 Posted: Fri Apr 16, 2004 2:44 am Post subject: How to get the Dataset list that are in Work Volume? |
 |
|
Hi,
We have a requirement like to list all the datasets (when given the first qualifier) that are all on the WORK Volume using REXX. When I tried with the LISTDS command, it lists all the datasets but attempts to recall all the datasets that are in TAPE Volume. I dont want to do that. I just want to list all the datasets that are in WORK Volume. Is there any other way to do this? Please let us know.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravishankar |

karavi2000,
Use listcat instead of listds and parse the output using rexx/clist checking the dataclas parameter.
| Code: |
LISTCAT LEVEL(HIGH LEVEL QUALIFIER) ALL
|
Hope this helps...
Cheers
Kolusu

Hi Kolusu,
Thanks. I got a way to go into the problem.
But is there anyway by which I get only the volume information from the LISTCAT. When I tried with VOLUME instead of ALL, still I got all the information. Is there any other way by which I get only the volume information of all the datasets. Please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravishankar |

Sure can. You can just get the volume information using the parm VOLUME on the listcat statement. Here is some additional information about listcat.
| Code: |
The LISTCAT command lists entries from either the master catalog or
a user catalog.
Syntax -
LISTCAT CATALOG('catname/password')
LIBRARY('lib_name')
FILE('dname')
OUTFILE('dname')
LEVEL('level') | ENTRIES('entryname/password' ...) |
LIBRARYENTRIES('library_entryname') |
VOLUMEENTRIES('volume_entryname')
CREATION('nnnn')
EXPIRATION('nnnn')
NOTUSABLE
CLUSTER DATA INDEX ALIAS SPACE NONVSAM
USERCATALOG GENERATIONDATAGROUP PAGESPACE
