These are ALC macros, but, since you have the disk volsers, they can be
used.

I don't dispute fact that replacement for an IDCAMS LISTCAT for determining
statuses of cataloged VSAM datasets , etc could be in the future. The csi

Dear Lizette,
thanks for your fast response. I was already aware of the CSI, I used it
in other REXX procedures to search for some datasets similar to ISPF
3.4. But AFAIK CSI only gives the name of a dataset, but no other
attributes (size etc.). In the case I#m talking about now, I already
For NONVSAM LISTDSI may work, for VSAM CSI will work.
And CSI returns the VOLUMES, RBA, and any other catalog information for both
VSAM and NONVSAM. Including if it spans multi volumes. If you look at my
other postings on CSI you will see that IBM has provided other samples to show
how to

You could also call idcams, output sysprint to a Qsam file, read with rexx and
parse

I think IBM seriously suggested that this was not to be used as it is
not a programming interface.
One off the wall vendor does/did that and every few years it breaks
as IDCAMS output changes.

IBM says these things and I understand, but what alternative has been provided

You never know in 2 years someone might be researching for a similar

Hi,
in a REXX application I used LISTDSI to determine the size of some
datasets, in order to generate a JCL stream and FTP locsite statements.
Now the datasets growed, so I meeded to define some datasets as multi
volume files. But here I recognized that LISTDSI doesn't support multi
volume
Yes, you can use the Catalog Search Interface (CSI) to do this.
There is documentation in z/OS V1R12.0 DFSMS Managing Catalogs
And a sample in SYS1.SAMPLIB(IGGCSIRX)
