Hi! I am able to determine the IODF unit address from IPAIODFU in IPA. However, this value becomes stale if the address changes when the storage folks move disk around. I can see the MVS command DISPLAY IPLINFO accounts for those changes in message IEE254I:
IEE254I hh.mm.ss IPLINFO DISPLAY text Explanation: Where text is: SYSTEM IPLED AT hh.mm.ss ON mm/dd/yyyy RELEASE fmid LICENSE = system USED LOADxx IN loadxxdsname ON devx ARCHLVL = n MTLSHARE = Y N IEASYM LIST = s1 NONE IEASYS LIST = s2{(OP)} IODF DEVICE: ORIGINAL(iodfdev1) CURRENT(iodfdev2) IPL DEVICE: ORIGINAL(ipldev1) CURRENT(ipldev2) VOLUME(iplvol) Is there an accessible (lives in COMMON), supported data area that also contains the "CURRENT" information that is present in the DISPLAY command? While I can parse the output of a console command, I would much rather fetch only the desired information from storage, if possible.
