  • 1.  CKFREEZE: can allocation information of data sets be queried?

    Posted Fri January 20, 2023 02:34 AM
    Hi, is it possible to query f.i. the space information of data sets which are reported in a CKFREEZE dataset?

    Hi Luc,

    If you mean to ask if there are CARLa fields for that, then the answer is No.

    I think the closest newlist types for that would be DSN, MEMBER, and DSN_MEMBER, and I see nothing closer to what you ask then the member size in bytes (BYTES).
    (The fast way to see the fields for a newlist type is typing FIELD type on the command line in the UI.)

    You can navigate to ISPF with the "34" line command on a dataset profile in RA.D, but that is not directly related to the data sets in the CKFREEZE.

    (The CKFREEZE does contain some of this information, but there is no interface to obtain it.)

    Regards,
