BPXWDYN gives the RTDSN only if an ALLOCATE is executed
When run via rexx BPXWDYN ALLOCATE does not wait for contending processes that are writing to generations to complete
Is there a way to retrieve the G0000V00 from relative GDG number without doing a BPXWDYN ALLOCATE or parsing a LISTCAT listing ?
BPXWDYN info is just for current DDNAME allocation as far I can see
Is there something else that can be used for this? |

| Did you try a BPXWYDYN INFO call? |

| Yes. I did. it does not take dataset names. it likes only currently allocated ddnames |

LOCATE can do it, I have used it in a small REXX function RXREALDS which can retrieve the real gds like so: name=RxRealDs('my.gdg(0)').
The program can be found here: harders-jensen.com/ |

Fantastic !
Thank you so much you both !
I will take a shot at it. I hardly know any assembler though. This maybe a good opportunity for me to learn just enough to figure out how to do this  |

I am getting ASMA057E on RxInit
Is this a custom module ? |

| works fine for me, do you have the install lib in assembly syslib? RXINIT is in member DVLXMACS which is included by the COPY statement. you are welcome to contact me directly using the email address on the website. |

| WJ, thanks for your quick response. I am trying to see how I can assemble both modules using changeman. Unfortunately I have virtually no knowledge of assembly hence it is challenging for me. Let me try a bit longer and see if I can figure this out. thank you again for the great code |

Could you please describe the steps to get a Rexx program from your site to my Mainframe.
I tried:
Downloaded to my PC.
FTP to Mainframe using Binary mode
TSO Receive - This failed:
| Code: |
INMR102I Restore not possible. Input data is not complete.
INMR921I Received file appears not to be an Interactive Data Transmission Facility file. The first record is:
INMR922I $: : .*
.* Gener
INMR901I Dataset X.RECEIVE.INVALID.FILE from WJ on N1 |

You must send the File as Binary FB 80 to the Host. The msg you are seeing is typical when the format is wrong. |

Thank you both.
Pre-allocating the FTP target dataset as FB/80 did the trick.
I was then able to issue the TSO Receive command. |

Hi Willy
What assembly options should be used for assembling DVLXMACS and for linkediting it?
The changeman linkedit is failing for me |

You asked for assembler options... if the assembly works okay, then probably the assembler options are okay. Are you sure the assembly got RC=0?
You should not be doing the linkedit if the assembly failed. |

You do not assemble DVLXMACS, you assemble RXREALDS. DVLXMACS is included via a COPY statement. As you can see in the JCL for RXREALDS, it requires the distributed lib as assembly SYSLIB especially to be able to include external macros and copybooks.
Why don't you just modify and run the install job RXREALDS, and when you have ascertained that it works, then you worry about CHANGEMAN? |

| Or locate the 'COPY' statements at the top of the assembler input, delete the statement and insert the member by hand. |
