Yes. And I vaguely remember IBM saying something about providing the same functionality that ServerPac provided. Of course, at my age, the parity errors occur at an increasing rate! On Thu, Sep 22, 2022 at 11:11 PM Brian Westerman < brian_wester...@syzygyinc.com> wrote: > I have maintained

2022-09-23 Thread Jack Zukt
Hi all, I have a rexx that reads a DCOLLECT output, processes the type "D" records and creates a file with a list of datasets that have over 200 extents. As I am using a SORT between the DCOLLECT and the rexx in order to have only the type "D" records, I was wondering if it would be possible to
