Re: wildcard utilities
If you are z/OS V1.9 then you could look at using REXX and SDSF to review the SYSOUT while it is on Spool, Then create a file with REXX that lists the sysouts you want to print? Or create a last step with REXX to create a GDG that is collected later with the information you need? Perhaps a more linear explanation would help us. For example: If job x runs and creates the following dataset(s) or sysout(s) that contain Y, then I want it in a list. Then explain with the Y part is. Is it a header, is it information in a data set name, etc... I am not clear on what you mean is the internals of all the incoming datasets . Can you clarify it more?

Re: wildcard utilities
Hi Jim, I have watched the thread with interest and if I understand the requirement correctly it is to produce a single printed output from multiple listings exported from Control-M in to sequential data sets with consistent DCB attributes, i.e. RECFM, LRECL etc. If this assessment is correct then John McKown's post alluding to ISPF LMDLIST with REXX as a batch job was a good starting point. The bit he left to other's imagination was any code required to actually write the collected data to spool once the data set list had been obtained. If you are able to tackle the REXX side I believe this is one way to achieve your desired aim. It was stated in another post that Control-M will allow any data set name to be used. If this is the case could you encourage the use of a GDG. If each of the prints were exported as a data set within the GDG, then producing the ultimate report would be as simple as code the DSN on the input DD statement to that of the GDG base entry name. This would then read all generations automatically. If using a standard naming convention is ruled out then John's suggestion is I think the best so far.

Re: wildcard utilities
Jim, if I understand correctly you want to do pattern matching (regular expressions) against some strings that your program extracts from some dataset? If you can use C as programming language then there is a string function call fnmatch() that provides pattern matching as in Unix shell commands for filenames (*, %, [] things ...) - or of course the regex functionality (which is more complex). For the fnmatch function I wrote a rexx function which is a simple wrapper for the C library - if you are interested in that, contact me off-list. regards Wolfgang - Original Message - From: SUBSCRIBE IBM-MAIN Jim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Newsgroups: bit.listserv.ibm-main To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2008 2:17 PM Subject: Re: wildcard utilities I really think I'm trying to make this more complicated than it is, but Barry's idea wasn't what I was looking for either.

Re: wildcard utilities
Even though you called it a print file, the dataset you create is actually a dump file. That is the reason the DCB is not what you expect. It is also the reason your sort did not provide anything expected. Unless I misunderstand, for this effort you do not want the actual data in the new print files created by Control-M. You merely want a list of the DSNs created on a certain date. If this is correct: Your TAPE DD statement should be named SYSPRINT. Delete the existing SYSPRINT. The space parameter seems excessive for a list of DSNs. Add a TAPE DD statement with DUMMY or DSN=NULLFILE. Add PARM='TYPRUN=NORUN' to your EXEC statement. Add BY(CREDT,EQ,ddd) - after the DUMP line to specify the date of interest. You mentioned usually wanting yesterday's datasets. In this case, you can replace the ddd with *,-1. Your list of datasets will be in the SYSPRINT output along with other DSS messages.

-Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of SUBSCRIBE IBM-MAIN Jim Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2008 3:44 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: wildcard utilities I have to move on to some other things for now, but want to try Barry's idea. Do you need something as simple as this? //LISTDS EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSIN DD * EXEC 'SYS1.SAMPLIB(IGGCSIRX)' EXEC SYS*.*SAMP* //* That will print the names of all the datasets beginning with SYS* and containing SAMP in the second qualifier to the SYSTSPRT DD. You can also use the .** suffix to get other datasets with longer names, like this: //LISTDS EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSIN DD * EXEC 'SYS1.SAMPLIB(IGGCSIRX)' EXEC SYS2.** //* HTH Peter This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
