Hi guys,
I am trying to get all the files using listcat.
However, got a cc=8
reviewing the manual, all is say is "Processing was completed, but specific details were bypassed".

What does it mean?
What should I do?
here is my code:

Select all

20 *-* DSNSET = APPL'.*.'EXTFILE
>>> "EXTY.*.EXTFILE"
21 *-* X = OUTTRAP('VAR.')
>>> "VAR."
22 *-* "LISTC ENT('"DSNSET"') NONVSAM"
>>> "LISTC ENT('EXTY.*.EXTFILE') NONVSAM"
+++ RC(8) +++
23 *-* Y = OUTTRAP('OFF')
>>> "OFF"
24 *-* IF VAR.0 = 0
>>> "0"
29 *-* IF LEFT(VAR.1,15) <> "NONVSAM -------"
>>> "1"

Thank you...
Miguel

I think you will find 'EXTY.*.EXTFILE' is not a valid entry name. To confirm this, try this job -

Select all

//A EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
LISTCAT ENT('EXTY.*.EXTFILE') NONVSAM
//

You can try this, though not all z/OS releases will accept it -

Select all

//A EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
LISTCAT LEVEL('EXTY.*.EXTFILE') NONVSAM
//

The TSO LISTC command is the IDCAMS LISTCAT command.

Both LVL and ENT work for me on zOS 1.13. Not sure why it doesn't work for you

Thanks, Steve & Vern,
I hadn't notice, but I got a nasty IDC3037I STORAGE FOR NUMBER OF ENTRIES EXCEEDS 16M LIMIT...
...that became obvious when trying IDCAMS as suggested.

So, I switched to LISTCAT LEVEL and got the desired results.

Thanks

I guess I spoke to soon.
switch to listcat level with idcams and got the results I wanted.
however, when I attempted to execute it within rexx got the same cc=8.
This time no additional messages were found.

I should post this error on tso-rexx list.

thanks guys

Miguel, it works for me in TSO as well.

Select all

5 *-* dsn = "SYS1.*.SASMMOD1"
>>> "SYS1.*.SASMMOD1"
6 *-* x = outtrap("VAR.")
>>> "VAR."
7 *-* "LISTC ENT('"dsn"')"
>>> "LISTC ENT('SYS1.*.SASMMOD1')"
8 *-* x = outtrap("OFF")
>>> "OFF"
9 *-* say VAR.0
>>> "6"

Have you tried with other DSN patterns ?

you're right, vern...
there is something weird with this, and I can't figure it out, yet..

I got cc=8 no matter the dsn I try.

thanks
