DSINFO Window: z/OS
Provides information about a cataloged physical file.
| z/OS specifics: | all |
| Syntax | |
| Details |
Syntax |
| DSINFO |
| DSINFO ddname |
| DSINFO 'physical-filename' |
| DSINFO 'UFS filename' |
| Details |
You can invoke the DSINFO window from any window in the windowing environment, including the windows in SAS/FSP and SAS/AF. To invoke the DSINFO window, type DSINFO followed by either a ddname, a fully qualified physical filename, a partially qualified name such as '.misc.text', or a full or relative UFS path. (See Specifying Physical Files for information about using partially qualified data set names.)
If you are referencing a concatenated file with a ddname, then the DSINFO window displays information for the first data set in the concatenation.
