Ah, yes, I was thinking more about a single, specific DSN. But I do use
IEHLIST, still, to get the allocation information for all the DSNs on an
entire volume. I also like to use DFDSS to get a "volume map" of how the
tracks on a volume are physically used. This is a DEFRAG run with the
PARM='TYPRUN=NORUN'.
