Dave and Gil, Your suggestion worked fine for a single member: T$SFC:/u/t4sfc: >cp -B "//'sys3.clist(rdmstat)'" /dev/fd1 | cksum 260387907 21600 It also works fine for a sequential file: T$SFC:/u/t4sfc: >cp -B "//'SYS3.FTP.NETRC'" /dev/fd1 | cksum 2567740904 240
It fails for an entire PDS: T$SFC:/u/t4sfc: >cp -B "//'SYS1.MACLIB'" /dev/fd1 | cksum cp: FSUMF137 partitioned data set source and a file target is not allowed It also fails trying to use a classic MVS file (of any DSORG) as input directly to the cksum command: T$SFC:/u/t4sfc: >cksum "//'SYS1.MACLIB'" cksum: FSUM6003 input file "//'SYS1.MACLIB'": EDC5129I No such file or directory. T$SFC:/u/t4sfc: >cksum "//'SYS3.FTP.NETRC'" cksum: FSUM6003 input file "//'SYS3.FTP.NETRC'": EDC5129I No such file or directory. Thanks for the pointing in the right direction. I had not noticed the existence of the cksum command. Now to figure out how to do something useful with it. :-) Cheers,,,Steve Steven F.
