From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List on behalf of Joe jeffries Sent: Thu 5/11/2006 1:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: VSAM Internals Hi guys, I wonder if anyone (Mark Thomen at IBM perhaps) can help! At my last site I used VSAM Manager (from Mainstar?)to look inside a KSDS. I've since moved companies and my new company hasn't got that product. It was the only tool I have ever used to look inside. I need to optimise a troublesome file but other than listing it's defenitions through IDCAMS I can't see inside. Whilst I'm more than happy with the AMS definitions, do IBM provide a tool to investigate inside or map CI's like VSAM manager? My line manager looked sort of strange when I asked him what they use to map CI's. Either he knows nothing about VSAM or there's a tool that everyone but me is aware of. As i've only just started, I don't want to advertise my/his dimness by asking a further potentially stupid question.
