I’ve been digging for a couple of days now trying to find out how I can dynamically retrieve the allocated space of a known dataset. Can anyone give me even a whiff of where to look?
It would help if you defined your environment. Easiest is the write an assembler routine to obtain and analyze the format 1 and (if any) format 3 DSCB entries for the data set. That requires knowing the volume serial, doing a catalog locate, or prompting user.
In TSO you can write a small REXX function to get variables for the data set (LISTDSI).
