Hi All,

I am aware of a command in the command prompt of 3.4 ISPF Panel to find out any particular member residing in any listed PDS.But in my shop that particular command is not working.Can anybody let me know do i have change settings / any other procedure to have that command activated in ISPF ? All the datasets listed are PDS & i am trying to find a member called TEST.

Code:

DSLIST - Data Sets Matching TECH022.*.*                         Invalid command Command ===> M TEST                                           Scroll ===> CSR                                                                                  Command - Enter "/" to select action                  Message           Volume -------------------------------------------------------------------------------          TECH022.PROJECT.TESTA                                           DSKAT1          TECH022.PROJECT.TESTB                                           DSKAT1          TECH022.PROJECT.TESTC                                           DSKAT1          TECH022.PROJECT.TESTD                                           DSKAT1          TECH022.PROJECT.TESTE                                           DSKAT1

What version of ISPF are you running? The Member command was introduced sometime around z/OS 1.2 around 2001, or probably the release before that, so your system should have it unless you are running an out of support system. If your system is older than that, have a look at the "Find member in DSLIST" page listed in the ISPF extensions at the ISPF and z/OS Tools and Toys page.

Thanks Semiqeezer for the info.I checked in my shop in ISPF option 7.3 and and we are using

Code:

Variable P A Value         ZENVIR   S N ISPF 5.0MVS     TSO           ZISPFOS  S N ISPF FOR OS/390 02.10.00      ZOS390RL S N OS/390 02.10.00

It seems that i am using OS/390 and not z/os,so i guess my shop has older version.So i tried the Rexx code "Find member in DSLIST" page listed in the ISPF extensions at the ISPF and z/OS Tools and Toys page and i do have any knowledge on REXX.So i created a PS and pasted the code and gave a EX Command

Code:

EX   TECH022.REXX.EXEC

But i get the following message

Code:

NO MEMBER PATTERN SPECIFIED ***

I get a message

Code:

TECH022.REXX.EXEC                             EX       RC=0     DSKAT1

Please let me know how should i go about it ?

Shekar, you didn't read the instructions properly. The syntax is:


TSO FINDMEM pattern

where pattern is a member name or member pattern.

and you haven't added the pattern to search for.
