Yes. It is possible. Like Lizette kindly said, there are many ways to do that. I would like to add: If you have good RACF controls (PROTECT-ALL(FAIL)) and SMS and you protect your cataloged tape datasets with RACF, you can just list all your HLQ from RACF. But first, how do you want to obtain the list in the first place? Interactively (=3.4, ISMF), programmatic (REXX, Assembler) or from a database (tape management, HSM) or ... ??? >That way I can get this? I did this once via CSI. One catalog at a stage because of size. Do a quick sort (by name and perhaps also by DEVTYPE). Parse out everything left of the first dot. Sort while dropping the duplicates. Repeat for each catalog and you have everything you want.
