Answer / pavan
We can find the dataset which is having the perticular member.
But you have list out all the datasets using 3.4.
EX: Suppose if your ID is starting with UCS5..then give
UCS5.** in 3.4......You will get the list of the datasets.
Then use command like below. Here member is "MAIN"
Command ==> M MAIN
"M" is the command to find the member in the datasets.

hi,
As the pavan said is correct,
more information we can also give mem 'dname' in 3.4 panel.
dname = ps name you want to find.
Thanks & Rgd's

@Jagan:
Work bench might be a tool in your project. Never divert
people in this way. because the same tool may or may not be
available in some projects..
Best way is to list all the datasets in 3.4 option.
Give M <member name> or Member <membername>

Answer / shekar
If the member is in one of the allocated datasets, then the
following REXX would help you:
/* REXX COMMAND TO search the member in the allocated
dataset */
arg
mem
mem = strip
(mem)
say ' '
if (mem = '' | mem = ' ')
then
do
say 'please give the member to be searched as
argument'
exit
end
/*trace
I*/
call on
error
ADDRESS ISPEXEC "CONTROL ERRORS
RETURN"
call
outtrap "LINE."
ADDRESS
TSO "LISTALC"
call
outtrap "OFF"
say mem
N = line.0
a = 0
ADDRESS TSOEXEC
do I = 1 to N
dataset = line.i
fullds = "'"dataset"("MEM")'"
foundmem = SYSDSN(fullds)
if foundmem = 'OK' then
do
a = a + 1
say '"'MEM'" is found in "'dataset'"'
end
end
if a = 0
then
say '"'MEM'" is not found in list of allocated
datasets'
exit
error:
zerrsm = "Return code"
rc
zerrlm = "Return code from command is"
rc
zerralrm
= "YES"
zerrhm

Answer / jagan
For searching a particular member to which PDS it belongs we
can check it in the workbench option 23...
In TSO Prompt enter > wb;;23 and enter the member name which
helps you find the PDS to which the member belongs too...

In all our JOB Statement we have always COND=(4,LT) defined. Nevertheless when a Job failed the last step should then be executed (send a message to an user). Due to we don't like to change all our JOB's (ca. 2000), we are looking for a simply solution.

Suppose your program is reading a Sequential Vsam file. The file contains 10 records. How will you code the JCL to read only 2nd, 5th, 7th,and 10th record?
