deadlycoder,

Go to option 3.4 and give out your userid as high level qualifier and search for remaining as u desire.
Code:

SHEKAR.WORK.*

which will list out all the datasets say for example 10 datasets are available and u want to find a member by name ABCD in the 10 datasets which you are unaware of where the member resides.On the command prompt type
Code:

M ABCD / MEM ABCD / MEMBER ABCD

which would give out the list all the PDS which has the member ABCD by name.You will see like this view.Hope it helps.
Code:

          SHEKAR.WORK.A                             Member: ABCD     
          SHEKAR.WORK.B                                           
          SHEKAR.WORK.C                             Member: ABCD     
          SHEKAR.WORK.D
          SHEKAR.WORK.E                                           
          SHEKAR.WORK.F                                           
          SHEKAR.WORK.G                             
          SHEKAR.WORK.H                                           
          SHEKAR.WORK.I                                         
          SHEKAR.WORK.J

Very nice shekar - I was not aware of this feature.

One additional note: You may have to scroll left or right in 3.4 to see the members.

deadlycoder,

If you don't know the first qualifier then you need to use the catalog search interface iggcsirx. Check this link

Hope this helps...

be aware that if you search every dataset on your system, you will update the last used date, and if your site uses that date to archive files, you will not be making any friends among your storage management people. You should really try to narrow down the high level qualifier before you start searching.

Another note of caution to be taken when using the Member command. Make sure that you have access to all the datasets that are going to be searched. I remember locking my id once for crossing the limit for access violations while trying to use the Member command.
