There is a "master" list of registered product prefixes (three letters) that 
describe which IBM and ISV products are associated with them. In SMP/E terms, 
typically this means the three letters after the "S" or "A" in the LLQ of the 
product dataset.

For example, SGIMxxxx in the LLQ (or DDDEF) will mean SMP/E as GIM is its 
product prefix

I am unsure if this list is generally available, however most ISVs will either 
have a pre-registered range of prefixes that they manage internally or will 
request a new one for a new product.

There isn't any one document.  You need the program directory for each
product.   But since most of the products come with a ServerPac, you 
can use the "CPAC.PGMDIR" softcopy version. 

You won't find the entire data set name, just the LLQ (low level qualifier), 
which matches the DDDEF name in SMP/E that is required. 

Another place you can find the information is the "Serverpac Installing 
Your Order" document.

Regards,

Mark
