There are differences and I want to see them all.
I also found the DCOLLECT option and I think I am going to try this.

Hmmm. Interesting. IDCAMS - yes, just a dump of lots of characters. Nothing 
else beside chopping down innocent trees.

Do you want to compare all and every record in those VSAM dsn? Ie, you want 
compare without validating them?

Or is there something INSIDE them you want to compare? Storage Class, Pool 
group, ACS routines, etc.?

AFAIK, the only way for now, is: for each ISMF screen, I select the CDS and do 
a list. Cumbersome, painful, etc.

I wonder if two different DCOLLECT runs with specific CDS can give you a report 
with differences? Currently I'm now unable to do a DCOLLECT run, due to other 
work...

It would be interesting if there is a [free/gratis] solution, because my 
Storage admin would like to use it too.

Or better - a type of IRRDBU00 unload of those SCDS. That would be very handy.
