Check the GDG defenition of existing GDG.

Post by Azar123 »

Hi,

If I've a GDG base which I've not created and I want to see the information of that GDG Base on LIMIT, NOEMPTY etc...., how can I see that?

Using ISPF 3.4 option when I gave S in front of the GDG base it showed an error message. Please help me if you know how to get it?

What error message did it show? Have you looked at the use of IDCAMS, and specifically LISTCAT? If the message comes down to you not having security authority to look at that file, then nothing will help except getting security authority, or providing a valid reason to your storage management team that they should provide you with the details.
