Once you have the dataset name from the catalog you can use the REXX LISTDSI service to get the dataset type (dsorg).

Character is what you are, reputation merely what others think you are.” - - - John Wooden -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Farley, Peter Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2024 10:52 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: IGGCSI00 Catalog Search interface Not everyone has access to DCOLLECT data (we are not all sysprogs with privileged access rights). IGGCSI00 can be used by most folks to query catalog data. Understanding that the DSNTYPE isn’t available in the catalog data, perhaps IEHLIST could be used (clumsily I admit) to “print” the VTOC data for each dataset and then scrape the listing for the answer? Possibly in the “SMS flags” area?
