Yes there's an excellent REXX example in SYS1.SAMPLIB(IGGCSIRX) that can easily be modified to do all sorts of cool things (along with a few assembler samples too). Dana On Tue, 27 Dec 2016 16:59:08 +, George, William@FTB wrote: However. I just found the IBM REXX sample for CSI and got

As came up in a recent discussion here (Lizette's small COBOL program thing), IBM's recommendation is to use CSI over parsing LISTCAT. LISTCAT output is, and has been for a while, open to change, even a breaking change, and we've been warned.

An EXTENDED GDG can have 999 generations active. I believe that a GDG must be defined as EXTENDED, it isn't ALTERable. One thing to keep in mind is that with an EXTENDED GDG, each generation has its own catalog entry. That could cause a significant catalog size increase. I don't know why it was

No you can't do a block recall. CLIST/REXX/XDC are your friends. Get listing of dataset to a file, Massage the file to generate the appropriate HRECALL commands Execute the massaged file. Redefine of the GDG is not necessary. ALTER 'gdgbase' SCRATCH will take care of that for you. Depending on
