Hello,

Here is a scenario:

I want to know the availability of storage (DASD) after loaindg VSAM file.

For Example: VSAM ds is defined with 100 cyls, and I load some data to this. How to check the remaining storage available in this file, so that I can plan for further udaptes and loads.

Regards,
Vinay

 Allocated space:             2520         Used data space:     1453 (  58 %) 
 Allocated extents:              2         Used extents:           2 ( 100 %) 
 Allocation type:           UNIQUE         Prime records:          1,951,975   
KSDS Index Allocation in Tracks:           Deleted records:                0   
 Allocated space:                4         Inserted records:              50   
 Number of records:            103         Updated records:               18

and what about a LISTCAT. It was invented to give information. The user just needs to read .... and understand ( prerequisite : learn a bit on VSAM - but this is obvious ).
