Ironically, we have them mounted on Solaris, but not on z/OS.  My
traditionalist systems programmer doesn't quite understand the
request, and I have better uses for his good will than to press
the issue as long as I can (and do) perform the operation from
Solaris.  It's just quicker to grep for a string in SYS1.MACLIB
than to fill in the blanks in the SuperC panels.

But NFS/grep fails to meet the OP's requirement for filtering
on volser.  But that's never bothered me: I don't care which
corner of the computer room my data reside in.  The catalog
takes care of that for me.
