The top part of the split screen below shows the result of issuing a batch step executing program IKJEFT01 with an input of: PRINTDS DATASET('DDBAMLK.TSO.ASM') ALL HOLD.
It shows how the PDS directory is displayed. What is nice about this feature is that it indicates the page where the JCL for that member begins.

The bottom portion of the split screen is the resulting PDS directory display for the same dataset as captured and printed by ISPF, Option 3.1; Suboption L (Library Utility; Print entire dataset)

How can I obtain both the ISPF statistics (especially the Creation and Last Modified dates) by using the PRINTDS statement with PGM=IKJEFT01 and also get the page # where the JCL for that member begins?

If I cannot get the dates using IKJEFT01 PRINTDS parameters, can I specify a parameter to ISPF Option 3.1; Suboption L to obtain the page # where the JCL begins in that report?

I would prefer to submit one batch report containing many PDS file names rather than to manually request multiple individual ISPF reports (one per PDS file), as this could become tedious.

Any suggestions?
Thank you very much.

Code:


USING IKJFET01; PRINTDS command

SDSF OUTPUT DISPLAY DDBAMLKT JOB21399  DSID   103 LINE 1 314   COLUMNS 02- 133
 
 DATA SET: DDBAMLK.TSO.ASM                                  PDS DIRECTORY

mvsmlk,

Here is an old topic which has a cobol/PLI program to read a pds directory and print the statistics

mvsmlk,


Please do not post the same topic in multiple forums. I deleted your duplicate post in TSO forum.

Apologies. I did not see the second topic when I posted this originally.

Thank you for the COBOL program which I now have functioning.
I am still looking for an "all in one" solution, where I can have the page number for the JCL member as well as the create and modify dates, ideally on a single line.
