Interesting. I have started ISPF, and I have checked that ISPF is active from my REXX code via ISPQRY and comes back with RC=0 (active).

Later in REXX code I attempt to get INFO on a DD and that is when LISTDSI returns -3.

So apparently I need to concatenate some library and I don't have any of the install stuff for this environment....

I'm not sure that I have access to the CSIs because this is a cloned system.

Ämne: Q: Where is LISTDSI kept?

I'm trying to build a TSO BATCH environment and it needs to have the ISPF 
Library functions in it.

So I copied all the DDs that I needed via TSO ISRDDN against my TSO address 
space.

What I am now running into is REXX is giving me a -3 for LISTDSI!!

Reminds me of the topic:  How long for an experienced z/OS sysprog...

I do not have any documentation for this environment. It was thought that I 
wouldn't need it. And it surprised me when using LISTDSI in batch that it 
failed. So I've been trying to SRCHFOR LISTDSI under ISRDDN and I find text 
fields, nothing in alias...

And since my IP address for my email is still being blocked at Marist (I have a 
call into them, have no idea when they will call back, and I did send an email 
to someone off line -- I'm wondering if they got that email, for running 
MTAs.... they will know what this is about).

Bottom line is, I can't use TSO-REXX list for now.
