John, VATLST syntax (like almost all other PARMLIB members) is found in the Initialization and Tuning Reference Manual.
For z/OS 1.10 that is SA22-7592-17 Alan Hallo To All, My question is about the VATLIST. I am not sure if I am using the proper terminology. This member is found in SYS1.PARMLIB and is scanned by the system to verify the disk status after an IPL is performed. What I would like to know what the fields represent. I have fair idea but I would like a confirmation. I GOOGLED for VATLIST but the search gave me results that I am not looking for. Here is an example to better explain my question VATDEF IPLUSE(PRIVATE) SYSUSE(PRIVATE) AGIA* ,0,2,3390 ,N CTUI* ,0,2,3390 ,N DBI0* ,0,2,3390 ,N TMCI* ,0,2,3390 ,Y WORK1*,0,0,* ,N The first field is the VOLSER, I think that the "2" represents that the volume is mounted as PRIVATE. The "0" (in the second field) means that the volume is mounted as STORAGE. I am not sure what the "0" in the first field indicates and what the "N" or "Y" in the last field signifies. I welcome all your input. Also, for the future could someone tell me where I can find this information.. Thanks in advance for your help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
