A couple months ago I was in the process of retrieving the size of a data set on disk until I came across a flag in one or more DSCBs that indicate whether or not the data set is compressed. This was the point at which I stopped coding, concluding that it was probably not possible to come up with an accurate uncompressed size if the data set resided on a SAN with compression turned on. Is my thinking off-base here? (of course, I have no interest in reading the file to determine the actual uncompressed length)
