Hi All,

VTOC Summary details which we can view from Mainframe option 3.4 and using Option V(Providing Volume Name)

I want to write an Automation to track few volumes space. Is it possible to grab above details using Mainframe batch or Rexx?

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

You can find most of that information in IDCAMS DCOLLECT 'V' Records. Post-process them w/ a tool of your choice.

I have extracted details using DCOLLECT but we have SAS/MXG in our environment to extract these details..

That's why am looking for alternate for this..

Thanks.

Hi Enrico,

Thank you. But both ISPF 3.4 Option V and extracted details using Decollect are not matching..

Example Freespace of volume ABCD12 is not matching as below

Code:

Volume . : ABCD12                                                           
Command ===>                                                               
                                                                           
Unit . . : 3390                                                             
                                                                           
 Volume Data             VTOC Data              Free Space   Tracks    Cyls
 Tracks . :  150,255     Tracks  . :        74  Size  . . :  45,706   2,915


Using Decollect am getting free space as below
Free space = C2D(DCVFRESP) = 13,183 tracks

You could try Naviquest (ISMF in Batch) to list volume information. An example is available in SYS1.SACBCNTL(ACBJBAI4) which is probably available on your system.
