Listing hidden ALIASes in a PDS/E?

OK. I ported some C code (sqlite3 to be exact) to z/OS UNIX. This created an object file which I then put in an FB/80 object PDS (using cp -B). I then linked that into a PDS/E using the binder with the PARM of ALIASES=ALL. The output shows all of the external, long, names as HIDDEN and I can't see

ISPF uses a QSAM read of the directory to build member list names. Long names can be retrieved using the DESERV macro - which ISPF does not use. And then there is this little gem for the DESERV HIDE=YES/NO parameter Hidden names are normally used only for program management binding purposes,

Hi experts, I work as an application programmer with a leading bank on CICS/Cobol for the past 4 years. Whilst I know, that data on the mainframe is stored on disks and tapes, I have never walked in to a data-center. At any mainframe data-center, what are different storage media used? Do they

IBM mainframes use ECKD formatted tracks. Since the manufacture of actual 3390s ended, DASD storage has been emulated on FBA (PC / Unix disk), usually in a RAID 5 configuration. Occasionally, you might run across a 3380 volume as these are also supported. Yes, Virtual tapes are stored on disk,
