Steve, The MVS/QuickRef JCL library contains a member (and supporting Rexx execs) named QWDSLIST. It is JCL for a batch job that can be modified to report by SMS Storage group. The job will sort the output based upon your chosen criteria, so you could sort the report descending on available tracks in a chosen storage group. The report is written to a DASD file, so you could post-process it with a Rexx exec and put up an alarm when the free space in the storage group drops below a chosen threshold.
When you say "storage pool", I think you mean "SMS Storage Group"; if not, you can choose DASD volumes to report on by mount status, volser pattern, esoteric or generic device type or SMS storage group. Hope this helps, Mike Shaw MVS/QuickRef Support Group Chicago-Soft, Ltd.
