A call to BPXWUNIX perhaps?  I believe there is an “exists” function in there.

But I also discovered that the “df” command can help you with both of your 
needs:

df /u/unknown
Mounted on     Filesystem                Avail/Total    Files      Status
df: FSUM6412 couldn't stat file system for "/u/unknown": EDC5129I No such file 
or directory.

df /u/tsouser
Mounted on     Filesystem                Avail/Total    Files      Status
/u/tsouser     (OMVS.USER.TSOUSER.ZFS)   1891838/1915200 4294967212 Available

Subject: How to verify if a uss path exists


I have the need to validate 100’s of home directories on TSO/RACF. IDs



I am using IRRXUTIL to get the home directory using REXX. What can I use to see 
if the path on the home directory exists?



Example



Tsoid MYTSO has a home directory of /tsousr/MYTSO



What do I use to see that the path. /tsousr/MYTSO exists?



I would like to keep this in the one REXX process



And I would like to know what z/OS dataset it is in



Thank you



Lizette
