Short answer is NO. CSI in IGGCSI stands for catalog search interface. If the information is not in the catalog, it cannot be retrieved. VSAM allocation information is available in the catalog. This information is not available for non-VSAM.
For what you appear to be trying to accomplish, DCOLLECT records may be a better solution. HTH, <snip> Already got to know how to retrieve DEVTYP using IGGCSI interface. Another question is: Is it possible to retrieve information regarding non-vsam dataset size, vsam dataset size? I found following records for non-vsam dataset: NOBYTAU Bytes/allocation unit NOBYTTRK Bytes/track NOEXTNT Number of extents But I can't find how to locate number of extents for a non-vsam dataset.Do you have an idea? </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
