Create a list of dataset with a HLQ and space used.

Post by AmigoJack »

For an exercise, we need to get a list of all the datsets, with a high level qualifier ABCDE.*, and the amount of space it is using. For example, the final output can be like:

Code: Select all

ABCDE.dataset1 113 tracks 
ABCDE.dataset2 134 tracks 
. 
. 
. 
Any help or pointers in this regard is appreciated.

Thanks.

When I tell somebody to RTFM or STFW I usually have the page open in another tab/window of my browser,
so that I am sure that the information requested can be reached with a very small effort 8-)

Using a utility? Writing a program? Using simple ISPF (option 3.4 with inital view set to SPACE would do this and if you need to a dataset then saving the list or cut'n'paste to a file on the PC)?
