You can scan the tape for *CDD** records. Lots of entries for an ML2 tape but it is a list of all the dsn on the tape. I use FATS, eg
//CDD EXEC FATSCAN,VOLI=205569,UNITI=(3490,,DEFER),TIME=8 00040000 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*,OUTLIM=80000 00050000 //TAPEIN DD DSN=HSM.HMIGTAPE.DATASET,LABEL=(1,SL,,IN),VOL=SER=205569 00060000 ANALYZE DUMP,PRTLEN=32767,LBLPRT=FORMAT,MAJERR=1,RETRY=0,MAXTERR=1 00070000 REPLACE LF=1,B=ALL,S=C'CDD' Jack Kelly LA Systems @ US Courts x 202-502-2390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
