Hi All,
Whenever I create a new member in my PDS using my TSO ID, default attribute is "PACK ON". When I edit it to "PACK OFF" and come out of that member and when again I go for editing or viewing, I can see it "Pack On"
So how do I change this default "Pack ON" to "Pack OFF"

the pack setting should be saved in the edit profile..
so typing PACK OFF should do it
the edit profile is saved/retrieved using the last qualifier of the dataset name
it' s strange that it does not get saved across sessions after SAVING a member
if You want to unpack all the memebrs of a PDS search the forum for
"$APPLY" is edit macro to apply an inner macro to all the members of PDS
I posted it and there is also a $UNPACK macro to .. the name tells |

Hi Enrico sorichetti,
I did what you said. (defining & allocating sysproc to new PDS containing your code, and running command at a command prompt inside a new member of my PDS.) But I got following
| Code: |
NOT CHANGED MY.PDS.NAME(MEM1)
NOT CHANGED MY.PDS.NAME(MEM2)
NOT CHANGED MY.PDS.NAME(MEM3)
.
.
and so on
|
None of the member was changed.
Please advice

Hi Parag
change the following
| Code: |
if 0 = $ispex(edit) then ,
done = "SAVED"
else ,
done = "NOT CHANGED" |
to
| Code: |
zrc = $ispex(edit)
if zrc = 0 then ,
done = "SAVED"
else if zrc = 4 then ,
done = "NOT SAVED RC("zrc") "
else ,
done = "UNEXPECTED RC("zrc") " |
if the return code is 4 then the member was not saved because it was not modified
( the member was already unpacked ) |

| I also have the above stated issue. Whenever I copy or move a PDS member to another, the newly created member will have PACK ON. I have to then PACK OFF it and save it again. How can I eliminate this issue? |

1) By not restarting an old topic - just reference it
2) by following the advice above
3) what does the profile of the output dataset show for the PACK option? Have you tried changing it? |

Do one thing like below:
| Code: |
RefList Help
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COPY Entry Panel
Command ===>
More: +
CURRENT from data set: 'SPUSER1.PFILE.PGMB497(BINDLIST)'
All selected Move/Copy actions will be processed.
To Library Options:
Project . . . Enter "/" to select option
Group . . . . / Replace like-named members
Type . . . . Process member aliases
To Other Data Set Name
Name . . . . . . .
Volume Serial . . . (If not cataloged)
NEW member name . . . (Blank unless member to be renamed)
Options
Sequential Disposition Pack Option SCLM Setting
2 1. Mod 1 1. Default 3 1. SCLM
2. Old 2. Pack 2. Non-SCLM
3. As is
|
While copying, when it asks the file(member) to which you want to copy, make the pack option as 1. After copying the file, once do the logoff to save the ISPF statistics. Do the proper logoff, don’t terminate the session. Logon the mainframe and start copying/viewing pds members. Now the option will not change to PACK ON automatically. try this. |
