In this instance the IDCAMS command represents a NETVIEW command: CMDDEF.IDCAMS.MOD=DSIDCAMS CMDDEF.IDCAMS.FOLDUP=Y
DISPMOD DSIDCAMS CNM263I MODULE LENGTH CSECT DATE PTF EPA AM ATTR CNM263I DSIDCAMS 000570 DSIDCAMS 05/30/14 ------- 000291B0 24 RN RU CNM265I END OF DISPLAY In my example, I am running Netview V6.2.1. I believe that the intent here was to provide a method for Netview to runs IDCAMS "maintenance" functions on the various Netview Databases; NLDM, NPDA, TARA etc, without the need to recycle the Netview tasks. I do use them for such maintenance, but they run infrequently. I don't claim to understand the relationship/difference between using the Netview IDCAMS command and the TSO or batch flavor, but it likely that the storage issue is related to how Netview invokes IDCAMS. It might be help to route this question/issue to the Netview users group. I believe that they are at Groups.io.
