 Posted: Mon Sep 29, 2003 6:56 pm Post subject: Multiple dataset search facility |
 |
|
Hello,
I can search a field using 3.14 option. But if I want to search the field in multiple datasets, how do I do it? I am looking for the same 3.14 screen, but with multiple dataset names to search....What is the best way to accomplish this...
Regards |

Hi
Foreground
This is what I see when I use the HELP (PF1) in 3.15:
| Code: | If you leave the SEARCH data set name field blank, a concatenation entry
panel is displayed. You can specify a list of concatenated data sets, an
uncataloged or password protected data set, or a cataloged data set name.
Up to four data sets may be concatenated for the search input.
DS1 . . . 'PROJECT.GROUP.SRC'
DS2 . . . MYGROUP.SRC
DS3 . . .
DS4 . . . 'PROJECT.MYGROUP.SRC.OLD'
Note: If two or more sequential data sets are concatenated as one input data
set, the data set attributes (for example, BLKSIZE) must be identical.
The alternate "other" fields for data set names, volume serial and password
information are similar to the standard ISPF panel format. |
Background
Here is an example from the manual:
| Code: | // JOB
//SEARCH EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,PARM=('SRCHCMP,ANYC')
//STEPLIB DD DSN=ISPF330.LOAD,DISP=SHR
//NEWDD DD DSN=USERID.PDS,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=USERID.PDS2,DISP=SHR
//OUTDD DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
SRCHFOR 'NEEDLE',W,10:20
/*

I was thinking of more than 4 datasets and possibly by giving a wild character search of files...like
hlq1. hlq2.** etc..
Anyways, thanks though!

1. Go to 3.4 in ISPF
2. In 'Dsname Level' write 'yurid.pds.*' i.e. hlq.slq.llq as per your requirement along with wildcard cahracter and enter
3. On the dslist command line type 'srchfor' and enter
4. A menu will open and allow you to write search string there and the same search string(s) will be searched in all the dataset listed in dslist screen. |

I think 'srchfor' is a home-grown utility.
The ISPF supplied DSLIST commands described here.
