Sure, Chuckie... go ahead and tease anyone running a z/VM before z/VM 5.3 where the rexx stsi() function came in!
An earlier poster mentioned the STSIUSE EXECSAMP on MAINT's 193 disk (on z/VM 5.3+) which does a very nice job.

There is no CP command to provide the info you're looking for, but the following EXEC fragment will do it: result = stsi(1,1,1) address command 'PIPE', '| var result', '| specs', '/Type: / 1 49.4 nw write', '/Model-Capacity Identifier: / 1 65.16 nw write', '/Model: / 1 101.16 nw', '| cons' It yields (for example): Type: 2097 Model-Capacity Identifier: 742 Model: E56 This was taken from STSIUSE SAMPEXEC that is included with your system.
