Lionel, many thanks to have tried to help me.
If nobody has an idea, I will need to open an RFE to IBM to extend the "if test
-e" command to MVS datasets. :-(

Hello Lionel !I tried with an actual HFS, and I get this from the command:
> cat //\'SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14\'cat: //'SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14':
> EDC5092I An I/O abend was trapped.
Ok, but I get also this message in syslog:IEC143I
213-8C,IFG0194D,WSYGRIS,STEP1,SYS00008,E61E,ZPS10G,SYS2.IMS04.HFS.ROOTIMS.V14
I would like to receive no message at all during this "test". I worry that my
coworkers will search for an error, where there is none.
Regards,
Laurent

Subject: USS script : how to test that a MVS Dataset exists ?
Hello,I would like to "test" if a MVS Dataset exist (is catalogued) during the
/etc/rc script.
As far as I know, since /etc/rc script run during USS initialisation, TSO
services are not yet available. So I cannot use the "tso" Unix command to issue
a LISTCAT.
Actualy my need is to perform a mount command in this process. But I do not
want to return Error messages, if the HFS/ZFS doesn't exist. That's why I need
to test that the dataset is catalogued/exist before calling the Mount service.
Do you have any idea ?
Regards,Laurent
