| What do you mean by "GDG dataset"? There is a GDG base -- which has absolutely no record length since it is nothing but a catalog entry, and then there are generations of the GDG which represent sequential files. |

TSO user ids don't generally have access to tape data sets so you cannot retrieve such data on data sets stored on tape. |

You could speak with the tape storage management people and learn if this is available via the tape management system. . . |
