Dave, >I want to run in a batch Assembler program. Possibly provide a DSN as input and return information as close to as possible that is returned from ISPF's Dataset Information screen.
I think Charles (Mills) offered some sample code that may help you (already deleted the article). >I had been looking at DSCB and came to the same conclusion about the primary space. I can total the tracks used through the extent list to get the space used and get the secondary space requested, just not the primary requested. I don't believe I could always find the SMF record. I refuse to admit that this is not kept handy somewhere. ISPF's "Dataset Information" has it, why can't I. I believe ISPF only shows the size of the first extent which may or may not be the primary allocation amount. You can use up to five extents getting your primary allocation. >I do not have any 3rd party software. I use CA-Disk (DMS) to produce a report showing this kind of information. The only place that I ever found the primary allocation amount was in the job output (or jcl) of the creating job or on the SMF 15 record written when the dataset was allocated.
