Is DUMMY in the TIOT? I recall that I asked on this list a while ago and I
believe the answer was that it is in the TIOT only in the sense that
TIOT->JFCB which contains "NULLFILE".

Is there a DCB readily available from fopen()?

In HLA you have several options. In each case the documentation tells
you how to recognize DUMMY.

 * Use DEVTYPE

 * Look at the TIOT entry

 * I believe that DYNALLOC allocation retrieval will tell you

 * If you did an OPEN, look in the DCB
