Hi,
Could anyone please advise me in finding the size of the PDS or PS using REXX? I need to know cylinders occupied by them.

Hi Jatin,
What do you mean by SIZE is it total bytes or Tracks or Cylinders?

Hi,
Try this
Code: Select all
/*REXX*/
ADDRESS ISPEXEC
X = LISTDSI("'"<pds or ps name>"'")
SAY 'DSNAME = ' SYSDSNAME
SAY 'LRECL = ' SYSLRECL
SAY 'BLKSIZE = ' SYSBLKSIZE
SAY ' USED ' SYSUNITS '= ' SYSUSED
SAY ' ALLOCATED ' SYSUNITS '= ' SYSALLOC
